Side by side

Population density

Czechia is 33 times more densely populated than Canada — 138 against 4 people per km². Density is where area and population interact, and it often reverses the impression the headline figures give — a large country with a small population can feel emptier than a small crowded one by an enormous margin.

Practical differences

• Different currencies: the Canadian dollar and the Czech koruna.
• Canada spans 6 time zones, so "local time" there is not a single answer.
• Different continents — North America and Europe.

Canada

The second-largest country in the world by total area, and the longest coastline of any — about 202,000 km, more than the rest of the world put together. Canada holds more lake area than every other country combined, and something over two million lakes. Its border with the United States is the longest between any two countries at 8,891 km.

Czechia

Landlocked and ringed by low mountains, so almost every river flows outward — the Elbe to the North Sea, the Oder to the Baltic, the Morava to the Black Sea. Czechia drinks more beer per head than any other country, and Pilsner Urquell in 1842 was the first pale lager.

Neutral facts only. Nothing here addresses politics, government, economics or which country is preferable in any respect — population is the one figure that dates, and it carries its year.
