If you have any idea what Canada looks like, this fact shouldn’t come as a surprise to you. Canada is one of the largest countries in the world, and surrounded almost entirely by water [besides to the south, of course].
The Northern, Eastern, and Western coastline in Canada covers 202,080 kilometers or 125,567 miles! For comparison, The United States’ coastline covers only 19,924 kilometers or 12,380 miles!
The entire world has around 356,000 kilometers of coast line, which means that Canada has 56.7% of all the coastline in the world!
If you wanna measure it by a ratio, the entire world has 148,940,000 square km, giving it a coast / area ratio of 2.39. Canada on the other hand, has 9,984,670 square km of area, giving it a whopping 22.22 coast / area ratio!
