What fits
- Missouri is 100% of the size of Cambodia.
- The measured areas differ by 584 km², less than half a percent: closer than the measurement itself is certain.
- Measured in Belgiums: Cambodia is about 5.90, Missouri about 5.88.
How they differ
- Cambodia also has the larger population: 17.4 million against 6.2 million, 2.83× as many people.
- Per square kilometre that is 96 in Cambodia against 34 in Missouri: Cambodia is 2.82× as densely populated.
- Their centres are about 14,100 km apart.
- On a standard web map Missouri looks larger than Cambodia: Cambodia at 13°N is drawn about 1.1× too large and Missouri at 38°N about 1.6×, so the map shows Missouri as 1.54× the size of Cambodia, when Cambodia is 1.00× the size of Missouri.
- Together Cambodia and Missouri cover 362,000 km², close to the size of Germany (358,000 km², 1.1% smaller).
- At Missouri's density, Cambodia would have 6.2 million people (it has 17.4 million). At Cambodia's density, Missouri would have 17.4 million (it has 6.2 million).
- Missouri's centre is 25.6° of latitude, about 2,850 km, farther north than Cambodia's.
- Cambodia ranks 90th of 246 countries and territories by area.
- Missouri is the 20th largest of the 51 states and districts of the United States and covers 1.9% of its area; it is the 29th most densely populated of them.
- Missouri lies about 26° of latitude (roughly 2,850 km) north of Cambodia.
- Shared out evenly, each person in Cambodia would have about 10,390 m² and each person in Missouri about 29,320 m².
- Laid side by side, Cambodia and Missouri would cover 362,000 km², about the same size as Germany.
- Together they have 23.6 million people, about as many people as Syria.
- Counted as a country, Missouri would rank 90th by area and 111th 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.
