293 states share the map in 1610. The largest by mapped area are Spanish Empire, Russia and Ottoman Empire.

Spanish Empire is the largest state on the map in 1610, a position it has held since 1534 (before that: Ming). It stays in first place until 1633, when Russia takes over. The five largest states hold 36% of all land with a recorded ruler. 48% of the land on the map has no recorded state. The number of states is about the same as in 1600: 293 against 301.
