If It Were My Home
The headlines tell a lot about the crisis in Yemen: internal strife, evacuations of international aid workers, Saudi Arabian airstrikes.
But you may have one very basic question that you can't easily find an answer for: How big is Yemen, anyway?
You can look at maps and check out Wikipedia but wouldn't it be great to just to slap an outline of Yemen on top of a map of the United States to get a sense of its size?
IfItWereMyHome.com lets you do just that.
