What fits
- Berlin fits inside Tuscany about 25.8 times by area.
- Tuscany is larger by 22,100 km² (8,520 mi²), which is 2,482% of the area of Berlin.
- Measured in Belgiums: Tuscany is about 0.75, Berlin about 0.03.
How they differ
- Tuscany is larger, but Berlin has the larger population: 3.8 million against 3.7 million, 1.01× as many people.
- Per square kilometre that is 4,223 in Berlin against 162 in Tuscany: Berlin is 26.0× as densely populated.
- Their centres are about 1,020 km apart.
- A standard web map misstates the comparison: Tuscany at 43°N is drawn about 1.9× too large and Berlin at 53°N about 2.7×, so the map shows Tuscany as 18.2× the size of Berlin instead of 25.8×.
- Together Tuscany and Berlin cover 23,900 km², close to the size of Rwanda (25,300 km², 6.1% bigger).
- The gap between them, 22,100 km², is about the size of Israel (22,100 km²).
- At Berlin's density, Tuscany would have 97.0 million people (it has 3.7 million). At Tuscany's density, Berlin would have 144,000 (it has 3.8 million).
- Berlin's centre is 9.0° of latitude, about 1,010 km, farther north than Tuscany's.
- Tuscany is the 5th largest of the 20 regions of Italy and covers 7.6% of its area; it is the 11th most densely populated of them.
- Berlin is the 14th largest of the 16 states of Germany and covers 0.2% of its area; it is the most densely populated of them.
- Berlin lies about 9° of latitude (roughly 1,010 km) north of Tuscany.
- Shared out evenly, each person in Tuscany would have about 6,160 m² and each person in Berlin about 240 m².
- Laid side by side, Tuscany and Berlin would cover 23,900 km², 94% of the size of Rwanda.
- Together they have 7.5 million people, about as many people as Sierra Leone.
- Berlin is drawn from 57 points: at a size under 2,500 km² the outline is a sketch, so the overlap shows the proportions rather than the exact shape.

Sources and method
- Outlines
- Natural Earth, 1:10m Admin 1 - States, Provinces, public domain. The outline of Tuscany 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.
