Now I found this website and made a couple of screenshots overlapping South Korea with the three states I think will be reading this blog the most: Arizona, Illinois, and Texas.
In each screenshot I made a red dot showing our location in the country (the port city of Gunsan). I located Dallas and Phoenix as close as I could to the capital city of Seoul as well. In Illinois I situated Chicago slightly east of Seoul to try to include more cities of people we know "in" Korea.
Damn America, you big. (By the way, Korea has roughly the same area as Indiana in terms of total size, but, almost impossibly, it is shaped almost exactly like Indiana as well.)
Also a few quick notes on the population of Korea:
- South Korea has ~50 million people.
- That is twice the population of Australia.
- That is 15 million more people than Canada.
- Roughly half of the country lives in the Seoul Metro area, making the Seoul metro area either the biggest or second biggest metropolitan area on the planet.
- South Korea is the 2nd most un-diverse country in the world (The first being their neighbors to the north)
