What does ' at ' mean in this context?

(He is from Saudi Arabia, the largest Arab state at the largest land area in western Asia.)

Thanks in advance.

Hello, Smart Girl—and welcome to English Forums. 'At' means nothing in that sentence, because it is wrong. The sentence should correctly read: He is from Saudi Arabia, the largest Arab s tate, with the largest land area in western Asia.
