It’s the second biggest “Western” country. It’s about twice as big as the EU, about as big as the whole of Europe with about the same population, so it’s mostly empty in the middle.
The obverse would be an American who wants to go to Europe, start out in Madrid, lunch in Copenhagen and fly back from Istambul.
But the US isn’t unique in size. It’s right next to two big countries, with Canada being even bigger, Europeand are familiar with Russia that’s the biggest country in the world, it’s not like people don’t know about China, Brazil and how they’re yuge…
Technically the US is unique in size. Name another nation that is 9.8 million km2. Canada is 10 million km2,Russia is 17.1 million km2, China is is 9.6 million…
So to say it is ‘unique in size’ is technically correct, the best kind of correct!

Sure but the context of the discussion is Europe vs US

Hah well you got me there
That’s why I’m saying “second biggest”, that doesn’t mean it’s unique.
