Why the map you grew up with disagrees
On a Mercator map, area grows with distance from the equator. Qatar sits at about 25°N and is stretched to 1.22× its true area; Uzbekistan at 42° N is stretched to 1.8×. That difference is why Uzbekistan looks so much bigger than it is next to Qatar. The figure above uses the Equal Earth projection, where every square kilometre is drawn the same size.
