Trinidad and Tobago is 1.31× the size of South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands: outlines of Trinidad and Tobago and South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands at the same scale
Outlines are drawn at true scale.
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.
