On a Mercator map, area grows with distance from the equator. Russia sits at about 66° N and is stretched to 6.06× its true area; Saint Martin at 18° N is stretched to 1.11×. That difference is why Russia looks so much bigger than it is next to Saint Martin. The figure above uses the Equal Earth projection, where every square kilometre is drawn the same size.
