Greenland is the largest island in the world.
At 836k square miles, Greenland is about 3x the size of Texas.
And while you may have thought Australia is the largest island, while it is surrounded by water, Australia is a continent and geographers consider continents and islands to be different. That would make Greenland the largest.
