Fiji is 1.77× the size of Asturias
Fiji (Oceania) covers about 18,900 km² (7,310 mi²) and Asturias (autonomous community of Spain) about 10,700 km² (4,120 mi²). Below, both outlines are drawn at one scale and centred on each other.

What fits
- Asturias is 56% of the size of Fiji.
- Fiji is larger by 8,250 km² (3,190 mi²), which is 77% of the area of Asturias.
- Measured in Belgiums: Fiji is about 0.62, Asturias about 0.35.
How they differ
- Fiji is larger, but Asturias has the larger population: 1.0 million against 926,000, 1.09× as many people.
- Per square kilometre that is 94 in Asturias against 49 in Fiji: Asturias is 1.93× as densely populated.
- Their centres are about 17,100 km apart.
- A standard web map misstates the comparison: Fiji at 17°S is drawn about 1.1× too large and Asturias at 43°N about 1.9×, so the map shows Fiji as 1.03× the size of Asturias instead of 1.77×.
- Together Fiji and Asturias cover 29,600 km², close to the size of Armenia (29,600 km², 0.1% smaller).
- The gap between them, 8,250 km², is about the size of Lebanon (10,000 km²).
- At Asturias's density, Fiji would have 1.8 million people (it has 926,000). At Fiji's density, Asturias would have 522,000 (it has 1.0 million).
- Asturias's centre is 60.7° of latitude, about 6,750 km, farther north than Fiji's.
- Fiji ranks 156th of 246 countries and territories by area.
- Asturias is the 10th largest of the 19 autonomous communities and cities of Spain and covers 2.1% of its area; it is the 12th most densely populated of them.
- Asturias lies about 61° of latitude (roughly 6,750 km) north of Fiji, on the other side of the equator.
- Shared out evenly, each person in Fiji would have about 20,440 m² and each person in Asturias about 10,590 m².
- Laid side by side, Fiji and Asturias would cover 29,600 km², about the same size as Armenia.
- Together they have 1.9 million people, 96% as many people as Lesotho.
- Counted as a country, Asturias would rank 167th by area and 162nd 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.
