- Manipur lies about 58° of latitude (roughly 6,400 km) north of Uruguay, on the other side of the equator.
- Shared out evenly, each person in Uruguay would have about 51,490 m² and each person in Manipur about 7,590 m².
- Laid side by side, Uruguay and Manipur would cover 199,000 km², about the same size as Kyrgyzstan.
- Together they have 6.3 million people, about as many people as Bulgaria.

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.
