This multi-panel meme demonstrates the common misconception that Australia is much smaller than it actually is, compared to the contiguous United States. The top panel shows a political map of the contiguous US with a small inset map of Australia placed over the western US, captioned 'HOW BIG PEOPLE THINK AUSTRALIA IS'. The bottom section shows Australia's actual size: the bottom left overlays Australia (to real scale) over the entire contiguous US, showing Australia covers almost the entire area of the US mainland.
