On a Mercator map, area grows with distance from the equator. Liechtenstein sits at about 47° N and is stretched to 2.16× its true area; Saint Barthélemy at 18° N is stretched to 1.1×. That difference is why Liechtenstein looks so much bigger than it is next to Saint Barthélemy. The figure above uses the Equal Earth projection, where every square kilometre is drawn the same size.
