What fits
- Gujarat is 81% of the size of Victoria.
- Victoria is larger by 43,500 km² (16,800 mi²), which is 24% of the area of Gujarat.
- Measured in Belgiums: Victoria is about 7.43, Gujarat about 6.01.
How they differ
- Victoria is larger, but Gujarat has the larger population: 60.4 million against 7.0 million, 8.61× as many people.
- Per square kilometre that is 327 in Gujarat against 31 in Victoria: Gujarat is 10.6× as densely populated.
- Their centres are about 10,100 km apart.
- A standard web map misstates the comparison: Victoria at 37°S is drawn about 1.6× too large and Gujarat at 23°N about 1.2×, so the map shows Victoria as 1.64× the size of Gujarat instead of 1.24×.
- Together Victoria and Gujarat cover 412,000 km², close to the size of Paraguay (400,000 km², 3.0% smaller).
- The gap between them, 43,500 km², is about the size of Denmark (42,700 km²).
- At Gujarat's density, Victoria would have 74.6 million people (it has 7.0 million). At Victoria's density, Gujarat would have 5.7 million (it has 60.4 million).
- Gujarat's centre is 59.6° of latitude, about 6,620 km, farther north than Victoria's.
- Victoria is the 6th largest of the 8 states and territories of Australia and covers 3.0% of its area; it is the 2nd most densely populated of them.
- Gujarat is the 6th largest of the 36 states and union territories of India and covers 5.9% of its area; it is the 18th most densely populated of them.
- Gujarat lies about 60° of latitude (roughly 6,620 km) north of Victoria, on the other side of the equator.
- Shared out evenly, each person in Victoria would have about 32,510 m² and each person in Gujarat about 3,050 m².
- Laid side by side, Victoria and Gujarat would cover 412,000 km², 1.03× the size of Paraguay.
- Together they have 67.4 million people, about as many people as the United Kingdom.

- Wikidata's official figure of 227,000 km² agrees with our measured area of 228,000 km², to within 2%.
- Our measured 184,000 km² is 5.9% below Wikidata's official figure of 196,000 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.
