Left off Alaska, but there is plenty of unallocated gray area in the Africa outline so I'll call it a wash.

Leaving off Alaska is pretty significant, indeed: http://www.usmarshals.gov/district/ak/images/alaska-small.gi...

I assume that the numbers to the left of the image (area of USA) include Alaska, so I think your comment actually is pretty accurate: the unallocated gray area and the area of Alaska must be pretty close to the same.
