On a Mercator map, area grows with distance from the equator. Armenia sits at about 40°N and is stretched to 1.72× its true area; Germany at 51° N is stretched to 2.53×. That difference is why Germany looks so much bigger than it is next to Armenia. The figure above uses the Equal Earth projection, where every square kilometre is drawn the same size.
