A discrepancy was deduced from comparing the CIA World Factbook and its previous iterations<ref name="31 Years of CIA World Factbook">{{Cite web|url=http://www.theodora.com/wfb/|title=31 Years of CIA World Factbook|publisher=CIA|access-date=31 January 2014}}</ref> against the information for United States in ''Encyclopædia Britannica'', particularly its footnote section.<ref name="United States">{{cite encyclopedia|url=https://www.britannica.com/place/United-States|title=United States|encyclopedia=Encyclopædia Britannica|access-date=4 December 2017}}</ref> In sum, according to older versions of the CIA World Factbook (from 1982 to 1996), the U.S. was listed as the world's fourth-largest country (after Russia, Canada, and China) with a total area of 9,372,610 km<sup>2</sup>. However, in the 1997 edition, the U.S. added coastal waters to its total area (increasing it to 9,629,091 km<sup>2</sup>). And then again in 2007, the U.S. added territorial water to its total area (increasing it to 9,833,517 km<sup>2</sup>). During this time, China's total area remained unchanged. In other words, ''no'' coastal or territorial water area was added to China's total area figure. The United States has a coastal water area of 109,362 km<sup>2</sup>, and a territorial water area of 195,213 km<sup>2</sup>, for a total of 304,575 km<sup>2</sup> of additional water space. This is larger than entire countries like [[Italy]], [[New Zealand]], and the [[United Kingdom]]. Adding this figure to the U.S. will boost it over China in ranking since China's coastal and territorial water figures are currently unknown (no official publication) and thus cannot be added into China's total area figure.|name="3rd-largest"|group="Note"}} | |||
