Total area of each realm

[Velax]

I had some free time and thought I'd work out just how much of the Far East each realm covers, in square miles. Here's the list:

Arcaea: 83435 square miles (22.42%)
Cathay: 60276 square miles (16.20%)
Coralynth: 28672 square miles (7.70%)
Greater Aenilia: 43223 square miles (11.62%)
Kindara: 55809 square miles (15.00%)
Ohnar West: 34625 square miles (9.30%)
Principality of Zonasa: 41370 square miles (11.12%)
Sorraine: 24714 square miles (6.64%)
Total: 372124 square miles

I asked the internet to give me this in convenient units instead, for fun.

Arcaea: Belarus
Cathay: Tunisia
Coralynth: Panama
Greater Aenilia: Honduras
Kindara: Nepal
Ohnar West: Serbia
Principality of Zonasa: Guatemala
Sorraine: Lithuania
Total: Egypt

Nice.

And if the Far East were a single country in the real world, it would be the 31st largest in the world.

[Ender]

Hey! That's pretty cool. Having a real world counterpart for the size also puts things a bit more in perspective.

[Draco Tanos]

Aye, it does.  Makes me wonder what all the continents are like in that regard.

[Antonine]

Woah. Interesting to think that Arcaea is only as big as Belarus. Now I feel a lot better about Sorraine being Lithuania sized :p

Big Nepal sized Kindara.

After much spreadsheet wrangling and math frustration by me and some PHP wizardry by Anaris, I present you with the areas of every realm and continent in BM (except FEI), along with their nearest real world counterpart. Enjoy!

Some amusing observations:

• Perdan and Suville are roughly each the size of North Korea. It certainly felt that way playing there.
• BoM is roughly the size of Nicaragua. Both were, for a very long time, run by an unquestioned dictator with highly questionable taste.
• Sint and Syria are comparable in size. Which is funny, because everyone else on BT seems to hope that Sint will tear itself apart in a similar fashion.
• Nothoi is almost exactly the size of Greece. A realm created explicitly with a Greek theme. Name, position names, culture, etc. How can this be coincidence?
• Terran and D'Hara are comparable in size fo the UAE. Perhaps that's what all this talk about "occidentalism" is!
• Luria Vesperi is a) the size of the Palestinian Territories and b) totally surrounded and blockaded by Luria Nova. Heh.

[Ender]

Awesome work guys! Thanks for throwing that together.

run by an unquestioned dictator with highly questionable taste

I think that describes all of the Barony's rulers at any point in our history. Though Edda always seemed a bit less insane.

[Scarlett]

Nothoi is almost exactly the size of Greece. A realm created explicitly with a Greek theme. Name, position names, culture, etc. How can this be coincidence?

Er, quite easily I suspect. Isn't that exactly what a coincidence is?

[Solari]

Er, quite easily I suspect. Isn't that exactly what a coincidence is?

That was more for dramatic effect than anything else. ;-P

[Velax]

Poor Colonies gets forgotten.

[Stabbity]

What? Rogue on Atamara is comparable in size to Belgium? How could that much land ever function without a government... Oh yea, Belgium.

[vonGenf]

All those lands are much smaller than I thought. I fully expected Dwilight to be the size of North America, not Iran.

Oh, and is it Solari or Anaris who translated the table in sq. km? I need to teach one of you about the meaning of significant digits....
