How they differ

Guyana is larger, but Kyrgyzstan has the larger population: 7.3 million against 879,000, 8.29× as many people.
Per square kilometre that is 37 in Kyrgyzstan against 4.2 in Guyana: Kyrgyzstan is 8.80× as densely populated.
Their centres are about 13,000 km apart.
On a standard web map Kyrgyzstan looks larger than Guyana: Guyana at 5°N is drawn about 1.0× too large and Kyrgyzstan at 41°N about 1.8×, so the map shows Kyrgyzstan as 1.67× the size of Guyana, when Guyana is 1.06× the size of Kyrgyzstan.
Together Guyana and Kyrgyzstan cover 410,000 km², close to the size of Paraguay (400,000 km², 2.5% smaller).
The gap between them, 12,200 km², is about the size of Vanuatu (12,300 km²).
At Kyrgyzstan's density, Guyana would have 7.7 million people (it has 879,000). At Guyana's density, Kyrgyzstan would have 828,000 (it has 7.3 million).
Kyrgyzstan's centre is 36.7° of latitude, about 4,080 km, farther north than Guyana'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.
