          That seems wrong to me. Manhattan is 0.28% the size of Wales.

              According to Wikipedia:

              Manhattan = 33.59 square miles
              Wales = 8,192 square miles

              I was using inconsistent measurements before, but that still makes Manhattan 0.41% the area of Wales.
