    The Caspian Sea is saltwater. Great Bear Lake is about 300,000 acres larger than Lake Baikal. Aral has shrunken by 90% and is no longer a “large” lake, so Great Slave Lake is now #10. Lake Erie is #10 if you count ONLY freshwater lakes. Here are the largest 11 lakes – by acres – in the world, according to Lakelubbers.com:

    Caspian Sea (saltwater) – 107.7 million acres
    Lake Superior – 20.3 million acres
    Lake Victoria – 17.0 million acres
    Lake Huron – 14.7 million acres
    Lake Michigan – 14.3 million acres
    Lake Tanganyika – 7.9 million acres
    Great Bear Lake – 7.813 million acres
    Lake Baikal – 7.782 million acres
    Lake Malawi (aka Lake Nyasa) – 7.3 million acres
    Great Slave Lake – 6.7 million acres
    Lake Erie – 6.3 million acres

    640 acres = one square mile.
