Top 15 Largest Countries In The World

Which country on earth is biggest by area? Countries in this list means sovereign states, which has a firmer definition than country. A sovereign state is a geographical area with an independent political government. The United Kingdom is for example a sovereign state but Scotland is not, since Scotland is partly governed by the UK Parliament. In the same way, China is a sovereign state but Tibet is not, although unwillingly. Nor is Greenland a sovereign state, even though it has become more and more independent from Denmark. So how big is Denmark and the other mega countries on earth? Here is the list of the largest countries in the world, based on statistics from the United Nations.
