What fits
- Honduras fits inside Germany about 3.19 times by area.
- Germany is larger by 245,000 km² (94,800 mi²), which is 219% of the area of Honduras.
- Measured in Belgiums: Germany is about 11.7, Honduras about 3.66.
How they differ
- Germany also has the larger population: 83.5 million against 8.3 million, 10.1× as many people.
- Per square kilometre that is 233 in Germany against 74 in Honduras: Germany is 3.15× as densely populated.
- Their centres are about 9,210 km apart.
- A standard web map misstates the comparison: Germany at 51°N is drawn about 2.5× too large and Honduras at 15°N about 1.1×, so the map shows Germany as 7.54× the size of Honduras instead of 3.19×.
- Together Germany and Honduras cover 470,000 km², close to the size of Turkmenistan (471,000 km², 0.2% bigger).
- The gap between them, 245,000 km², is about the size of Guinea (244,000 km²).
- At Honduras's density, Germany would have 26.5 million people (it has 83.5 million). At Germany's density, Honduras would have 26.2 million (it has 8.3 million).
- Germany's centre is 36.2° of latitude, about 4,030 km, farther north than Honduras's.

Sources and method
- Outlines
- Natural Earth, 1:10m Admin 0 - Countries, public domain
- Boundary
- De facto, as drawn by Natural Earth. Main territory: the largest landmass and every part within 1,000 km of it.
- Area
- Measured on the WGS84 ellipsoid from the full-detail outlines, shown rounded. Comparisons use main-territory area.
- 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.
