A quick google says SK is 38k sq/mi and FL is 65k sq/mi. Maybe I missed something?

SK is essentially an island nation. It's not like you can drive your car or train up north through the DMZ and wander up to China.

I see what you mean. I was referring the half the size in terms of population — SK is 50m vs FL with 21m.

SK has great transportation connectivity so I’m not sure how being topographically disconnected has an effect in modern times.
