It's the smallest state in the United States, where states are the individual units, just as provinces are in some countries. To ask about it on the world level has no meaning. "State" can mean a subdivision of a country, or it can mean a whole country. There is no universal worldwide category of "state" into which all so-called states can be placed and compared because it has no universal meaning.

In contrast, "city" has a universal meaning, and cities can be compared worldwide.
