The biggest? Take a bow, Sudan.
According to the New York Post, the northeastern African nation scored an average of 7.07 inches in erect length – nearly two inches longer than the global average of between 5.1 and 5.5 inches.
The tiniest? Thailand takes that dubious honour, measuring in at 3.72 inches on average. Asian nations in general represented most of the least-endowed nations.
Canada, meanwhile, was smack-dab in the middle at 74th among 142 countries measured, with an average length of 5.48 inches, scoring just behind the U.S. which placed 68th at 5.57 inches.
The rankings were published by dataset compendium Data Panda, based on a 2014 report in the journal BJU International Sexual Medicine. Researchers reviewed existing studies from around the world that measured penis size by health professionals in samples of 50 people or more.
One key caveat was that many of the measurements were self-reported, meaning, take it all with a grain of salt.
Coming in second was the Democratic Republic of the Congo with a 7.05-inch average, followed by Ecuador (6.93), The Republic of the Congo (6.83) and Ghana (6.81) rounding out the top five.
The tale of the tape showed North Korea just ahead of Thailand at the bottom at 3.78 inches, followed by Cambodia (3.88) and Nepal (3.93). Myanmar placed fifth at 3.97 inches.
Not to be left out was girth, dominated by European countries.
France led the way with an average erect circumference of 5.37 inches around, followed by the Netherlands at 5.33 inches and Ecuador at 5.29 inches.
Canada got in on the girth game at 33rd overall at 4.85.
