That’s because of the damned Mercadian map projection, it makes Europe seem much larger than it is.
Fun? fact: Africa is A LOT bigger than you think.
Yea. But iirc their coastline is smaller than Norway's
Every country has their own favorite coastline statistic.
Denmark has the largest coastline to area ratio with 172 m of coast per km^2
Unofficially there are probably even smaller island nations with higher ratios though.
