What is the territorial area of the United States in the world?

The land area of the United States is more than 9.3 million square kilometers, ranking fourth in the world, second only to China. In fact, this includes overseas territories. The real United States is only "7.9 million square kilometers", which is 1.7 million square kilometers smaller than China.

Although Alaska has a large area, as big as Tibet and Qinghai combined, its geographical conditions are far worse than Tibet and Qinghai. The whole world is ice and snow!

We in Tibet and Qinghai can at least grow food to feed ourselves, and Alaska doesn't even dare to farm. Nearly10 million people live in our two places, but how many people live in Alaska?

The United States covers an area of 7.9 million square kilometers, and there is no real place for human habitation in China. He has the advantage of a small population. If the United States has such a large population as China, the conditions are not as good as China!

Take the natural conditions in the Midwest of the United States as an example. In fact, it is similar to the geographical environment in Qinghai, Xinjiang and Inner Mongolia. For example, Utah, Arizona, California and Nevada have a total land area of more than10.5 million square kilometers, and the real oasis area is almost the same as that of southern Xinjiang.

The best and most concentrated agriculture in America is the Central Plains, which is really the best place in America. But we also have such a treasure trove of geomantic omen in China. The three plains, the Northeast Plain, the North China Plain and the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River are not worse than the Central Plains of the United States. Moreover, there is a huge advantage that the American Central Plains can't match, that is, each of the three plains has an east-west mountain barrier, which can well block the cold wave from the north, but the American Central Plains does not have these conditions! There are no east-west mountains here, which makes it vulnerable to the cold current of the Arctic Ocean in winter and hurricanes in summer.

The United States is the country with the most frequent tornadoes in the world and suffers huge losses every year!

Take agriculture as an example: "Although the United States is the largest agricultural exporter in the world, it is not the largest agricultural output country. There is a misunderstanding here. People think that American agriculture is developed and food production will be high. This is not right. No matter the total grain output or the yield per mu, the United States is far lower than China, only about half of ours. Its advantage is that its population is far less than that of China.

The soil in America is acidic and not suitable for farming. The real potential of cultivated land is not great, and it is completely driven by science and technology. If we simply grow food on land, the cultivated land in the United States does not have much advantage.
