The guy is comparing Europe (continent) to the USA (country). Not the same.
Actually it seems there is some ambiguity. I've always held that "America" is the continent comprising North, South and Central America, because that's how I was taught. Now it seems some count North and South America as two different continents. Also the image describes "United States of America" and "Europe" but then uses the flag of the European Union which is only some of the countries of Europe.
