How they differ
- Belarus is larger, but Gujarat has the larger population: 60.4 million against 9.1 million, 6.67× as many people.
- Per square kilometre that is 327 in Gujarat against 44 in Belarus: Gujarat is 7.50× as densely populated.
- Their centres are about 5,000 km apart.
- A standard web map misstates the comparison: Belarus at 54°N is drawn about 2.8× too large and Gujarat at 23°N about 1.2×, so the map shows Belarus as 2.71× the size of Gujarat instead of 1.13×.
- Together Belarus and Gujarat cover 392,000 km², close to the size of Zimbabwe (389,000 km², 0.7% smaller).
- The gap between them, 23,100 km², is about the size of Belize (22,300 km²).
- At Gujarat's density, Belarus would have 67.9 million people (it has 9.1 million). At Belarus's density, Gujarat would have 8.0 million (it has 60.4 million).
- Belarus's centre is 30.8° of latitude, about 3,430 km, farther north than Gujarat's.
- Belarus ranks 86th of 246 countries and territories by area.
- Gujarat is the 6th largest of the 36 states and union territories of India and covers 5.9% of its area; it is the 18th most densely populated of them.
- Belarus lies about 31° of latitude (roughly 3,430 km) north of Gujarat.
- Shared out evenly, each person in Belarus would have about 22,910 m² and each person in Gujarat about 3,050 m².
- Laid side by side, Belarus and Gujarat would cover 392,000 km², about the same size as Zimbabwe.
- Together they have 69.4 million people, about as many people as France.

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.
