Russia is the largest state on the map in 1760, a position it has held since 1633 (before that: Spanish Empire). It stays in first place until 1917, when United Kingdom takes over. The five largest states hold 51% of all land with a recorded ruler. 34% of the land on the map has no recorded state. The number of states is about the same as in 1750: 264 against 272.
