This is a COUNTY, not a CONTINENT :) As much as I love Skyrim, and I am amazed by its realistic rendering of mountains, woods and valleys, our scale of reference is off to be talking about plate tectonics here. Based on my feel that those lakes on the skyrim map are about a mile long each when I walked them (I will have to go back and pace one off), that would make the entire map about 10-20 miles wide. Even New Jersey is larger.
