10,000,000-10,400,000 is Europe (3,900,000-4,000,000) sq mi

depends which countries like Georgia you count for the 100,000-200,000 , but mainly how much toward the Ural mountains in Russia you count, and the water area in Scandinavia

4,236,351 sq km European Union (1,635,664 sq. mi)

9,833,517 sq km United States (3,796,742 sq mi)

3,796,742 / 1,635,664 ≈ 2.32
