The Sahara Desert is the largest hot desert in the world, and the third largest desert overall after Antarctica and the Arctic, which are cold deserts. It covers much of North Africa, extending from the Red Sea in the east to the Atlantic Ocean in the west, and including parts of several countries such as Algeria, Chad, Egypt, Libya, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Niger, Western Sahara, Sudan, and Tunisia. The Sahara is characterized by its harsh environment, including sand dunes, rocky plateaus, and very little water or vegetation. Despite these conditions, it is home to various adapted plants and animals, as well as human communities who have historically lived as nomads.
