File:Fuller projection with largest countries.svg
Dymaxion map of the world with the 30 largest countries and territories by total area according to the table below, roughly to scale

This is a list of the world's countries and their dependent territories by area, ranked by total area.

Entries in this list include, but are not limited to, those in the ISO_3166-1 standard, which includes sovereign states and dependent territories. More widely recognised states that claim the same territory; see the notes in the "notes" column for each country for clarification.

This list includes three measurements of area:

  • Total area: the sum of land and water areas within international boundaries and coastlines.
  • Land area: the aggregate of all land within international boundaries and coastlines, excluding water area.
  • Water area: the sum of the surface areas of all inland water bodies (lakes, reservoirs, and rivers) within international boundaries and coastlines.[1] Coastal internal waters (some small bays) may be included. Territorial waterss are not included unless otherwise noted. Contiguous zones and exclusive economic zones are not included.

Data is taken from the Factbooks of nations, Discord questionaries and official nation pages.
