What fits
- Manitoba is 89% of the size of Chile.
- Chile is larger by 83,800 km² (32,400 mi²), which is 13% of the area of Manitoba.
- Measured in Belgiums: Chile is about 24.0, Manitoba about 21.3.
How they differ
- Chile also has the larger population: 19.5 million against 1.3 million, 14.5× as many people.
- Per square kilometre that is 26 in Chile against 2.1 in Manitoba: Chile is 12.8× as densely populated.
- Their centres are about 10,400 km apart.
- On a standard web map Manitoba looks larger than Chile: Chile at 36°S is drawn about 1.5× too large and Manitoba at 55°N about 3.0×, so the map shows Manitoba as 1.74× the size of Chile, when Chile is 1.13× the size of Manitoba.
- Together Chile and Manitoba cover 1,389,000 km², close to the size of Peru (1,290,000 km², 7.1% smaller).
- The gap between them, 83,800 km², is about the size of Austria (84,000 km²).
- At Manitoba's density, Chile would have 1.5 million people (it has 19.5 million). At Chile's density, Manitoba would have 17.2 million (it has 1.3 million).
- Manitoba's centre is 90.8° of latitude, about 10,100 km, farther north than Chile's.
- Chile ranks 40th of 246 countries and territories by area.

- Manitoba lies about 91° of latitude (roughly 10,100 km) north of Chile, on the other side of the equator.
- Shared out evenly, each person in Chile would have about 37,860 m² and each person in Manitoba about 486,240 m².
- Laid side by side, Chile and Manitoba would cover 1,389,000 km², 1.08× the size of Peru.
- Together they have 20.8 million people, 97% as many people as Sri Lanka.
- Counted as a country, Manitoba would rank 41st by area and 159th 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.
