Which country is included among the countries larger than India?

Correct answer: Canada

The direct answer is option D: Canada. To solve this, compare the total area of each country with India. India is a very large country, but it is generally ranked seventh in the world by area. The six countries larger than India are Russia, Canada, China, the United States, Brazil and Australia, depending on the standard area ranking used in the textbook. Canada is therefore certainly larger than India. Option A, Bhutan, is a small Himalayan country and has far less area than India. Option B, Nepal, is also much smaller than India. Option C, Bangladesh, is smaller than India as well, although it has a high population density. Option D, Canada, is correct because its total area is much greater than India’s. The question asks for one country included among countries larger than India, not for a neighbouring country or a country with a larger population. A helpful memory chain is “Russia, Canada, China, USA, Brazil, Australia” before India in the usual school list. Always compare area, not population, economic power or location.
