Per Meta Linden's spreadsheets, there was about 1,577 million square meters of land owned in SL at the end of June. (edit: Meta calls this _resident owned land_, which I suspect does not include non-resident-owned land like roads, mainland protected water sims, stuff at auction, etc)
http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=pxbDc4B2FH94lKcWU2YDVFQ Hm.. Is that 1,577,000 square kilometers or 1,577 square kilometers? I think it's the later but it's Monday so who knows.. Going by 1,577 number, the CIA says that SL is now 10x the size of Liechtenstein, sorry Brenda, and just bigger than Faroe Islands. https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/rankorder/2147rank.html _____________________

Who trusts the CIA? I'm going to say that I do, just in case they're watching. _____________________

I found this lst of smallest countries by area.
The 10 smallest countries in the world: Vatican City - 0.2 square miles Monaco - 0.7 square miles Nauru - 8.5 square miles Tuvalu - 9 square miles San Marino - 24 square miles Liechtenstein - 62 square miles Marshall Islands - 70 square miles Saint Kitts and Nevis - 104 square miles Seychelles - 107 square miles Maldives - 115 square miles Andorra is the 16th smallest country in the world at 180 square miles. Luxemburg doesn't even come close with an area of over 1600 sq miles. Or there is this site which has a nice list of countries by population and area. http://www.worldatlas.com/aatlas/populations/ctypopls.htm I don't know what the real numbers are but ... 65,000 people online at peak so I guess a bit more than 1/2 million active users. My guess would pur SL somewhere around 150-160 out of 192 listed countries. _____________________

(edit: Meta calls this _resident owned land_, which I suspect does not include non-resident-owned land like roads, mainland protected water sims, stuff at auction, etc) 1,577 sq kilometers 600 sq miles (wild estimate here) That would make it almost 4 times the size of Barbados. rank country land area (sq Km) 165 Luxembourg 2,586.00 166 Comoros 2,170.00 167 Mauritius 2,040.00 168 Sao Tome & Principe 1,001.00 169 Kiribati 811.00 170 Dominica 754.00 _____________________

Hm.. Is that 1,577,000 square kilometers or 1,577 square kilometers? I think it's the later but it's Monday so who knows.. I don't know about the geography stuff, but I'm pretty sure there are 1 million square meters in one square kilometer. 1km = 1000m; 1000m x 1000m = 1,000,000square meters. -Atashi _____________________
