Arunachal Pradesh: Part of this region's boundary is disputed with China. Size Versus draws Natural Earth's de facto outline, the boundary as it is held on the ground, and takes no position on it.
What fits
- Arunachal Pradesh is 96% of the size of Austria.
- Austria is larger by 3,400 km² (1,310 mi²), which is 4.2% of the area of Arunachal Pradesh.
- Measured in Belgiums: Austria is about 2.74, Arunachal Pradesh about 2.63.
How they differ
- Austria also has the larger population: 9.0 million against 1.4 million, 6.49× as many people.
- Per square kilometre that is 107 in Austria against 17 in Arunachal Pradesh: Austria is 6.23× as densely populated.
- Their centres are about 7,070 km apart.
- A standard web map misstates the comparison: Austria at 48°N is drawn about 2.2× too large and Arunachal Pradesh at 28°N about 1.3×, so the map shows Austria as 1.79× the size of Arunachal Pradesh instead of 1.04×.
- Together Austria and Arunachal Pradesh cover 165,000 km², close to the size of Somaliland (167,000 km², 1.7% bigger).
- The gap between them, 3,400 km², is about the size of Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (3,320 km²).
- At Arunachal Pradesh's density, Austria would have 1.4 million people (it has 9.0 million). At Austria's density, Arunachal Pradesh would have 8.6 million (it has 1.4 million).
- Austria's centre is 19.6° of latitude, about 2,170 km, farther north than Arunachal Pradesh's.
- Austria ranks 116th of 246 countries and territories by area.
- Arunachal Pradesh is the 14th largest of the 36 states and union territories of India and covers 2.6% of its area; it is the 35th most densely populated of them.
- Austria lies about 20° of latitude (roughly 2,170 km) north of Arunachal Pradesh.
- Shared out evenly, each person in Austria would have about 9,350 m² and each person in Arunachal Pradesh about 58,290 m².
- Laid side by side, Austria and Arunachal Pradesh would cover 165,000 km², 1.05× the size of Tunisia.
- Together they have 10.4 million people, about as many people as Portugal.
- Counted as a country, Arunachal Pradesh would rank 116th by area and 156th by population.

Sources and method
- Outlines
- Natural Earth, 1:10m Admin 1 - States, Provinces, public domain for the region; Natural Earth, 1:10m Admin 0 - Countries, public domain
- Boundary
- De facto, as drawn by Natural Earth. A region is drawn whole, every island included; a country is its main territory.
- Area
- Measured on the WGS84 ellipsoid from the full-detail outlines, shown rounded.
- Drawing
- Each outline is projected with an equal-area projection centred on its own centroid, so areas stay true and the two can be laid over each other.
