How Countries by area is played

Every card in this deck carries a hidden value on the same scale — km² for the Countries — and the run is one long sorting problem. The first card is dealt face up. Each card after it goes into the gap where you think it belongs, and the value only shows once it lands. Get it wrong three times and the run ends with whatever you had placed.

This deck can also be shuffled together with any other deck measured in km² — tick several on the deck tree to build one longer timeline out of them.
