Kort antwoord:<\/strong> Rusland is het grootste land ter wereld, met een oppervlakte van ongeveer 17,1 miljoen km\u00b2. Dat is ruim 400 keer zo groot als Nederland. Daarna volgen Canada, de Verenigde Staten en China.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Rusland strekt zich uit van Oost-Europa tot aan de Grote Oceaan en beslaat elf tijdzones. Toch is het verschil met de nummers twee tot en met vier kleiner dan je zou denken. Dit is de top 10 grootste landen ter wereld op basis van totale oppervlakte (land en binnenwater), afgerond.<\/p>\n

De 10 grootste landen ter wereld<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Rusland<\/strong>: ongeveer 17,1 miljoen km\u00b2<\/li>\n
  2. Canada<\/strong>: ongeveer 10,0 miljoen km\u00b2<\/li>\n
  3. Verenigde Staten<\/strong>: ongeveer 9,8 miljoen km\u00b2<\/li>\n
  4. China<\/strong>: ongeveer 9,6 miljoen km\u00b2<\/li>\n
  5. Brazili\u00eb<\/strong>: ongeveer 8,5 miljoen km\u00b2<\/li>\n
  6. Australi\u00eb<\/strong>: ongeveer 7,7 miljoen km\u00b2<\/li>\n
  7. India<\/strong>: ongeveer 3,3 miljoen km\u00b2<\/li>\n
  8. Argentini\u00eb<\/strong>: ongeveer 2,8 miljoen km\u00b2<\/li>\n

  10. Algerije<\/strong>: ongeveer 2,4 miljoen km\u00b2<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Rusland<\/h2>\n

    Volgens Britannica<\/a> is Rusland het grootste land ter wereld. Het land ligt deels in Europa en deels in Azi\u00eb; het grootste deel van de bevolking woont in het Europese deel, terwijl Siberi\u00eb enorm groot en dunbevolkt is.<\/p>\n

    Canada, de VS of China: wie is tweede?<\/h2>\n

    Canada is het op \u00e9\u00e9n na grootste land. Over de derde plaats verschillen bronnen soms: of de Verenigde Staten of China groter is, hangt af van of je kustwateren en grote meren meetelt. Op basis van totale oppervlakte staan de VS meestal net voor China.<\/p>\n

    Grootste land van Afrika en Zuid-Amerika<\/h2>\n

    Algerije is het grootste land van Afrika, Brazili\u00eb het grootste van Zuid-Amerika. Australi\u00eb is zowel een land als een werelddeel.<\/p>\n

    En Nederland?<\/h2>\n

    Nederland is ruim 41.000 km\u00b2 groot, inclusief binnenwater. In Rusland past Nederland dus meer dan 400 keer. Benieuwd naar de andere kant van het lijstje? Lees dan over de kleinste landen ter wereld<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
