According to my quick search, the area of Germany is 3.6% of the US'. It's many things, including big.

True. But worth mentioning that Germany is in fact pretty big, as Alaska tends to skew the US number quite a bit.

Germany is twice the size of New England and 16x the size of Massachusetts.

Yes, but new england is tiny. It only take four hours to drive across the width of the length of it. (As the crow flies, no accounting for road geography here)
