On a Mercator map, area grows with distance from the equator. Monaco sits at about 44° N and is stretched to 1.92× 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 Monaco. The figure above uses the Equal Earth projection, where every square kilometre is drawn the same size.
