"Peru is a huge country the size of the 5 west coast states, California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, and Montana."

This seemed to be off, so I checked. After conversion from sq km to sq miles, Peru has 496,226 sq miles. The 5 States have 589,009 sq miles. Even after substracting Washington State, the remaining four States are still bigger by 10,000 sq miles. Peru is still bigger than I thought it was.

What surprised me was that Montana is on the west coast.
