What fits
- Bremen fits inside Luxembourg about 6.76 times by area.
- Luxembourg is larger by 2,220 km² (858 mi²), which is 576% of the area of Bremen.
- Measured in Belgiums: Luxembourg is about 0.09, Bremen about 0.01.
How they differ
- Luxembourg is larger, but Bremen has the larger population: 693,000 against 691,000, 1.00× as many people.
- Per square kilometre that is 1,797 in Bremen against 265 in Luxembourg: Bremen is 6.79× as densely populated.
- Their centres are about 424 km apart.
- A standard web map misstates the comparison: Luxembourg at 50°N is drawn about 2.4× too large and Bremen at 53°N about 2.8×, so the map shows Luxembourg as 5.82× the size of Bremen instead of 6.76×.
- Together Luxembourg and Bremen cover 2,990 km², close to the size of Samoa (2,780 km², 7.1% smaller).
- The gap between them, 2,220 km², is about the size of Mauritius (2,000 km²).
- At Bremen's density, Luxembourg would have 4.7 million people (it has 691,000). At Luxembourg's density, Bremen would have 102,000 (it has 693,000).
- Bremen's centre is 3.4° of latitude, about 380 km, farther north than Luxembourg's.
- Luxembourg ranks 181st of 246 countries and territories by area.
- Bremen is the 16th largest of the 16 states of Germany and covers 0.1% of its area; it is the 3rd most densely populated of them.
- Bremen lies about 3° of latitude (roughly 381 km) north of Luxembourg.
- Shared out evenly, each person in Luxembourg would have about 3,780 m² and each person in Bremen about 560 m².
- Laid side by side, Luxembourg and Bremen would cover 2,990 km², 1.08× the size of Samoa.
- Together they have 1.4 million people, about as many people as Estonia.
- Bremen is drawn from 43 points: at a size under 2,500 km² the outline is a sketch, so the overlap shows the proportions rather than the exact shape.
- Counted as a country, Bremen would rank 203rd by area and 166th 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.
