Lake Superior is the largest in square mileage.
Lake Baikul in Russia contains more water than any other lake.
Lake Michigan and Lake Huron are 2 different lakes.
Finally, the Caspian is a sea, not a lake, hence the name Caspian SEA. It contains salt water.

Salt water and names dont make it a Sea -- not that 'Sea' has any specific definition anyways.

The Caspian Sea is a Lake by definition that it is not connected to any other ocean; it is sometimes not considered a true lake simply because it used to be connected to the ocean before land mass changes cut it off. Unlike most lake which were formed by glaciation.
