Veneto is 1.07× the size of Hawaii
Veneto (region of Italy) covers about 18,000 km² (6,960 mi²) and Hawaii (state of the United States) about 16,800 km² (6,510 mi²). Below, both outlines are drawn at one scale and centred on each other.

What fits
- Hawaii is 93% of the size of Veneto.
- Veneto is larger by 1,190 km² (459 mi²), which is 7.1% of the area of Hawaii.
- Measured in Belgiums: Veneto is about 0.59, Hawaii about 0.55.
How they differ
- Veneto also has the larger population: 4.9 million against 1.5 million, 3.37× as many people.
- Per square kilometre that is 272 in Veneto against 86 in Hawaii: Veneto is 3.15× as densely populated.
- Their centres are about 12,600 km apart.
- A standard web map misstates the comparison: Veneto at 46°N is drawn about 2.0× too large and Hawaii at 20°N about 1.1×, so the map shows Veneto as 1.93× the size of Hawaii instead of 1.07×.
- Together Veneto and Hawaii cover 34,900 km², close to the size of Taiwan (36,200 km², 3.8% bigger).
- The gap between them, 1,190 km², is about the size of São Tomé and Príncipe (1,040 km²).
- At Hawaii's density, Veneto would have 1.6 million people (it has 4.9 million). At Veneto's density, Hawaii would have 4.6 million (it has 1.5 million).
- Veneto's centre is 25.4° of latitude, about 2,830 km, farther north than Hawaii's.
- Veneto is the 8th largest of the 20 regions of Italy and covers 6.0% of its area; it is the 5th most densely populated of them.
- Hawaii is the 47th largest of the 51 states and districts of the United States and covers 0.2% of its area; it is the 13th most densely populated of them.
- Veneto lies about 25° of latitude (roughly 2,830 km) north of Hawaii.
- Shared out evenly, each person in Veneto would have about 3,680 m² and each person in Hawaii about 11,580 m².
- Laid side by side, Veneto and Hawaii would cover 34,900 km², 1.05× the size of Moldova.
- Together they have 6.4 million people, about as many people as Bulgaria.

- Wikidata's official figure of 18,300 km² agrees with our measured area of 18,000 km², to within 2%.
- Our measured 16,800 km² is 40% below Wikidata's official figure of 28,300 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. The outline of Veneto 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.
