Well presumabley they're trying to show how big Africa is
but comparing it to countries is a bit silly IMO, surely they should compare it to other continents? It's like comparing the size of laptops in terms of mobile phones. Eh, I'm probably wrong.

hmm, you could have Austrailia
in there, Argentina was an odd inclusion (though I'm surprised by how big it is.) It could have been done better. But Africa is a huge place, I think Lake victoria is the size of the UK. (though I may have got that bit of information from a pub quiz)

Oh and that it says
"the worlds other countries" that implies Africa is a country That's what I meant - it implies Africa is a country.

I get the impression its for Merkins
who are probably the ones who think there are tigers in Africa.
A friend from Wales was chatting to some one in the states who said "Wales is that near Brazil?"
