Minor comment, but I don't get where some people take that China is smaller than the USA. China is the 2nd largest country in the world and its landmass is ˜2% larger than the US (including Alaska).
India though, even as 7th in the world, is smaller than the US, with about 32% of its area.
Population-wise India has now surpassed China, and both beat the US (3rd in the world) by over 1B people each.
