What fits
- Umbria fits inside Guyana about 24.8 times by area.
- Guyana is larger by 203,000 km² (78,300 mi²), which is 2,385% of the area of Umbria.

How they differ
- Guyana is larger, but Umbria has the larger population: 882,000 against 879,000, 1.00× as many people.
- Per square kilometre that is 104 in Umbria against 4.2 in Guyana: Umbria is 24.9× as densely populated.
- Their centres are about 8,140 km apart.
- A standard web map misstates the comparison: Guyana at 5°N is drawn about 1.0× too large and Umbria at 43°N about 1.9×, so the map shows Guyana as 13.4× the size of Umbria instead of 24.8×.
- Together Guyana and Umbria cover 220,000 km², close to the size of Laos (228,000 km², 3.8% bigger).
- The gap between them, 203,000 km², is about the size of Kyrgyzstan (199,000 km²).
- At Umbria's density, Guyana would have 21.9 million people (it has 879,000). At Guyana's density, Umbria would have 35,000 (it has 882,000).

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. The outline of Umbria is the provinces Natural Earth draws there, joined along their shared borders.
- 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.
