The desert comprises much of North Africa, excluding the fertile region on the Mediterranean Sea coast, the Atlas Mountainsof the Maghreb, and the Nile Valley in Egyptand Sudan. It stretches from the Red Sea in the east and the Mediterranean in the north to the Atlantic Ocean in the west, where the landscape gradually changes from desert to coastal plains. To the south, it is bounded by the Sahel, a belt of semi-arid tropical savannaaround the Niger River valley and the Sudan Region of Sub-Saharan Africa. The Sahara can be divided into several regions including: the western Sahara, the central Ahaggar Mountains, the Tibesti Mountains, the Aïr Mountains, the Ténéré desert, and the Libyan Desert.
For several hundred thousand years, the Sahara has alternated between desert and savanna grassland in a 41,000 year cycle caused by the precession of the Earth's axis as it rotates around the Sun, which changes the location of the North African Monsoon. The area is next expected to become green in about 15,000 years (17,000 AD). There is a suggestion that the last time that the Sahara was converted from savanna to desert it was partially due to overgrazing by the cattle of the local population.[8]

KALAHARI DESERT :
The Kalahari Desert is a large semi-arid sandy savanna in the Southern Africa extending for 900,000 square kilometers,covering the much of Botswana, parts of Namibia and regions of South Africa. It receives 5-10 inches of rainfall annually. The desert is part of the 900,000 square miles of Kalahari Basin. In Summer, the temperature can top 45 degree celsius ; on winter nights, it can drop to -15 degree celsius. Meerkat, Kalahari Lion, Cape Cobra are the common animals that we can find here.
NAMIB DESERT :
Namib Desert is a coastal desert in Southern Africa. It stretches more than 2,000 kilometers along the Atlantic Coast of Angola, through Namibia and South Africa extending southward from the Carunjamba River in Angola, through Namibia and to the Olifants River in Western Cape, South Africa. Having endured arid and semi- arid conditions for roughly 55-80 million years, Namib Desert may be the oldest desert in the world.
