What is the largest sea in the world?

Explanation:
When we compare seas, we look at surface area—the amount of water that covers the ground. Among the seas listed, the Arabian Sea covers the most area, roughly 3.8 to 3.9 million square kilometers. The South China Sea is a bit smaller, about 3.5 million square kilometers. The Caribbean Sea runs around 2.7 million square kilometers, and the Mediterranean Sea is about 2.5 million square kilometers. So the Mediterranean is not the largest among these options; the Arabian Sea is larger. (If you ever compare seas overall, the Philippine Sea is often cited as the largest marginal sea, but that’s outside these choices.)
