Alaska w/ an area of 1.7m sq/km or 663k sq/Freedom Units compared to Western Australia 2.5m sq/km or 975k sq/Freedom Units I’m not sure about that… But I suppose it’s possible.
It’s a really long drive from Utqiagvik to Ketchikan or even Proudhoe Bay to Juneau because you have to wait for climate change to make building the roads feasible
Many of the roads across the interior are probably gravel. At least they were when I last journeyed there. The ones along the West Australian coast are paved though. They form what’s called Highway 1 (or at least it used to be).
Surely you can do better than that. NZ almost has you beat.
You’re comparing a state to an entire country. Perth in western Australia to Cairns in Queensland is 49 hours of driving.
It’s also nowhere near as beautiful as the drive from Cape Reinga to Bluff
At least you have a road that reaches diagonally across WA. If Alaska did it would take a lot longer than that

It’s not about the overall area, it’s about the shape. Alaska has long legs. WA is very compact for its size.
