What fits
- Samut Prakan fits inside Manitoba about 725 times by area.

How they differ
- Manitoba is larger, but Samut Prakan has the larger population: 1.4 million against 1.3 million, 1.01× as many people.
- Per square kilometre that is 1,502 in Samut Prakan against 2.1 in Manitoba: Samut Prakan is 730× as densely populated.
- Their centres are about 12,200 km apart.
- A standard web map misstates the comparison: Manitoba at 55°N is drawn about 3.0× too large and Samut Prakan at 14°N about 1.1×, so the map shows Manitoba as 2,056× the size of Samut Prakan instead of 725×.
- Together Manitoba and Samut Prakan cover 654,000 km², close to the size of Myanmar (663,000 km², 1.5% bigger).
- The gap between them, 652,000 km², is about the size of Afghanistan (642,000 km²).
- At Samut Prakan's density, Manitoba would have 980.3 million people (it has 1.3 million). At Manitoba's density, Samut Prakan would have 1,850 (it has 1.4 million).
- Manitoba's centre is 41.1° of latitude, about 4,570 km, farther north than Samut Prakan's.

- Samut Prakan is the 72nd largest of the 77 provinces of Thailand and covers 0.2% of its area; it is the 3rd most densely populated of them.
- Manitoba lies about 41° of latitude (roughly 4,570 km) north of Samut Prakan.
- Shared out evenly, each person in Manitoba would have about 486,240 m² and each person in Samut Prakan about 670 m².
- Laid side by side, Manitoba and Samut Prakan would cover 654,000 km², about the same size as Myanmar.
- Together they have 2.7 million people, about as many people as Jamaica.
- Samut Prakan is drawn from 40 points: at a size under 2,500 km² the outline is a sketch, so the overlap shows the proportions rather than the exact shape.

- Wikidata's official figure of 648,000 km² agrees with our measured area of 653,000 km², to within 2%.
- Our measured 900 km² is 10% below Wikidata's official figure of 1,000 km². Official figures can include inland water or count land that an outline draws differently. This difference is flagged for review.

Sources and method
- Outlines
- Natural Earth, 1:10m Admin 1 - States, Provinces, 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.
