    For reference, it’s roughly the same size as Kyūshū, 2/3 of Tasmania, or 1/2 of Ireland. That might not sound like a big deal until you remember that it’s a fluvial island, unlike those three.

    Fun fact: from December to May, most of the island gets flooded. (It’s “wet season” there.)

    Brazil is the same size as North America.

    Correction: The United States.
