Transcript: How big is Russia? Well, let me put it this way: Russia is massive. It's 21 times bigger than Pakistan, five times the size of India, and double the size of China. Russia alone covers 10% of the entire world's landmass. But there was a time when Russia had a tough time managing all that space. So they sold Alaska to the U.S. for only $7.2 million. Russia's size is mind-blowing, if you were to drive from the western part of Russia to the east, you'd have to adjust your watch 11 times because you'd be crossing through 11 different time zones. And, with all that room, it's no surprise Russia's got the world's longest railway line, the Trans-Siberian Railway. This beast stretches over 9,289 kilometers. Can you believe that?
