Just think of the map as a big pie chart, just using the outline of the US as its reference area. That's just "out of all the land in the country."

Now, it doesn't matter where you put the segments of the pie chart, right? It is just about the size and relationship of each slice, that's all.

As I mentioned in the edit, click on the map at the site and you can see all kinds of information and some that fits the way you are trying to see it.
