On a Mercator map, area grows with distance from the equator. Dominica sits at about 15° N and is stretched to 1.08× its true area; Russia at 66° N is stretched to 6.06×. That difference is why Russia looks so much bigger than it is next to Dominica. The figure above uses the Equal Earth projection, where every square kilometre is drawn the same size.
