  1. 8,022 sq miles and 2,958,600 people.  and people...note that he or she was asking about "Wales", not "Whales" the mammal lol


  2. You don't mean Prince Charles. All I know about Wales (Cymru) the principality is Tom Jones, Dylan Thomas, Richard Burton, and coal mines. According to the 2005 census, the population that year was 2,958,600. Size: 8,022 sq. miles.Like many a Celt, DylanThomas he had quite a way with words and there was a certain wild darkness about him which of course eventually did him in.  But he left some fabulous poetry and readings behind.

  3. Wales is located on a peninsula in central-west Great Britain. Its area, the size of Wales, is about 20,779 km² (8,023 square miles - about the same size as Massachusetts, Slovenia or El Salvador and about a quarter of the size of Scotland). It is about 274 km (170 miles) north-south and 97 km (60 miles) east-west. Wales is bordered by England to the east and by sea in the other three directions: the Môr Hafren (Bristol Channel) to the south, St. George's Channel to the west, and the Irish Sea to the north. Altogether, Wales has over 1,200km (750 miles) of coastline. There are several islands off the Welsh mainland, the largest being Ynys Môn (Anglesey) in the northwest.

    The population of Wales in the 2001 census was 2,903,085, which has risen to 2,958,876 according to 2005 estimates. This would make Wales the 132nd largest country by population if it were a sovereign state.

    According to the 2001 census, 96% of the population was White British, and 2.1% non-white (mainly of Asian origin).[4] Most non-white groups were concentrated in the southern cities of Cardiff, Newport and Swansea.

  4. From narwhal-sized to Blue Whale sized. Population varies by species. Not really any good reason to total 'em up, though...
