OK... 2 seconds on Google:

  • United States: 9.8 million square kilometers.
  • Europe: 10.2 million square kilometers.

Do you also need me to search for kilometer?

Yes but he has a point : you can't travel in the USA by train, it's a fucking nightmare. Whereas in EU it's quite easy and cheap.

Europe 44 different countries. USA 1 country.
