Most euros have no goddamn idea just how huge the US actually is.
Q: Why don't Americans travel abroad? A: That's a 12+ hour flight I can't afford to go somewhere I don't speak the language. I barely live paycheck to paycheck if I'm lucky.
Q: Why don't Americans speak other languages? A: I can drive for up to and over 1,000 miles in almost any direction and everybody still speaks English. The exception is most of Mexico. And some of Quebec, but that's because some of them are just assholes.
Q: Is America really that big? A: All of Europe could fit inside the continental 48 states alone, with room left over for desert. We have literally every biome here, more vacation options than you could fit into a human lifetime of just visiting them all, and we import all the best stuff from everywhere else. There's no practical reason to leave the country, and we don't have to mess with border crossings in-country. Until recent years we didn't need passports at all, in country. Now the TSA demands them (or the Real ID equivalent) for some security theater political bullshit reason, but that's flying domestically only.
"all of Europe could fit inside the 48 continental states alone" - are you sure about that, fam?
Maybe if you had a clue about what is going on outside of your country you would want to leave it, but alas, you don't.
Not far off.
The continuous US states are 8,080,460 square kilometres.
Europe is 10,186,000 square kilometres.
I am not sure if maths has reached north america yet, but saying that "Europe can fit in the continuous us states with room to spare" does not increase the percieved intelligence of the average american.
Europe is actually bigger than the entirety of the US, including alaska and overseas territories, but who cares about facts, right? If you can manufacture ridiculous reasons to feel better than others, who needs them?
In what world is that "not far off"?
Given that Australia (7,688,287 square km) became part of Europe in 2015, yes, pretty damned far off.
