- epimetheus 10y agoThere's single buildings larger than a lot of countries. The Boeing plant in Everett, WA is over 399 km^2 in floor space. That puts it larger than something like 45 Sovereign states/countries[0].

- AshleyGrant 10y agoThe Boeing plant is 0.4 km^2, not 399 km^2. 1 km^2 = 1,000,000 m^2.
- epimetheus 10y agoYou're right, I posted without thinking and didn't do the math. It's on par with Vatican City though (slightly smaller), but yeah, that 45 country figure is way off. Thanks for that correction.
