What fits
- Telangana fits inside Canada about 86.6 times by area.
- Canada is larger by 9,831,000 km² (3,796,000 mi²), which is 8,562% of the area of Telangana.

How they differ
- Canada also has the larger population: 37.0 million against 35.2 million, 1.05× as many people.
- Per square kilometre that is 307 in Telangana against 3.7 in Canada: Telangana is 82.4× as densely populated.
- Their centres are about 11,300 km apart.
- A standard web map misstates the comparison: Canada at 60°N is drawn about 4.1× too large and Telangana at 18°N about 1.1×, so the map shows Canada as 322× the size of Telangana instead of 86.6×.
- Together Canada and Telangana cover 10,060,000 km², close to the size of United States (9,447,000 km², 6.1% smaller).

- At Telangana's density, Canada would have 3.05 billion people (it has 37.0 million). At Canada's density, Telangana would have 427,000 (it has 35.2 million).
- Canada's centre is 42.6° of latitude, about 4,740 km, farther north than Telangana's.

- Canada lies about 43° of latitude (roughly 4,740 km) north of Telangana.
- Shared out evenly, each person in Canada would have about 268,860 m² and each person in Telangana about 3,260 m².
- Laid side by side, Canada and Telangana would cover 10,060,000 km², 1.06× the size of the United States.
- Together they have 72.2 million people, 1.05× 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.
