    One: Deserts cannot build solid foundations, which is not conducive to building cities. Two:

    Although the desert area is large, the city that can be built needs people to live in, its natural environment is poor, and the basic living conditions required by people are lacking. If you ship it from a distance, the cost is too high. Three:

    Even if you have to build it, you have to wait for the human technology to pass, not now, wait for the future.

    1. It's not necessary.

    1.The population living is small, 2Lack of inputs and outputs, 3Weak economic foundation, 4The cost of desert development is too high.

    Second, there are no conditions.

    1.The natural conditions are harsh, such as deserts and droughts, resulting in poor water sources and climate.

    2.Lack of resources, few natural, human and other resources, 3The surrounding natural, economic and other environmental conditions are poor, 4The sandy soil environment determines that the cost of various buildings is too high, 5The construction of a city will cause damage to the local natural environment.

    First of all, the sparse sandy soil environment determines that it is not suitable for construction, and of course it is not suitable for traffic roads, and secondly, there is a lack of water sources, the water supply is unchanged, and there is a harsh desert climate with sparse vegetation. Of course, the cost is too high and the risk is high.

    The investment is high, the need for high technology, and the risk is high, which is similar to the current development of marine resources, so the desert land resources have not been fully utilized.

    The Sahara Desert is located in northern Africa.

    Formed about 2.5 million years ago, the Sahara Desert is the world's largest sandy desert with an area of about 9.32 million square kilometers. The name "Sahara" is derived from the language of the Tuaregs, a local nomadic people, who in their language means "desert". The desert was formed about 2.5 million years ago.

    The Sahara Desert is the largest desert in the world outside of Antarctica, located in northern Africa from the Mediterranean Sea in the north to the Sudanese steppes in the south. It is located south of the Atlas Mountains and the Mediterranean Sea (about 35°N) and north of about 14°N (250 mm contours). The Sahara Desert begins on the Atlantic coast in the west, is bounded by the Atlas Mountains and the Mediterranean Sea in the north, reaches the Red Sea in the east, and reaches the Sahel on the border between Sudan and the Niger River valley in the south, a semi-desert and semi-steppe transition zone.

    There is so much sand in the Sahara Desert, why is the price of sand for urban construction rising so high!

    Hello, dear!First, the sand of the desert cannot be used to build a house. Second, the construction of cities requires a lot of sand, but transporting sand from the Sahara Desert to cities is a very resource- and money-intensive process.

    This is because the Sahara Desert is one of the largest deserts in the world, and it covers most of North Africa and is located far from the city. The transportation of sand requires large trucks and boats to complete, which increases the cost of transporting the mountain. In addition, the harsh environmental conditions of the desert and the relative inconvenience of transportation and logistics systems also require more human resources and materials, which is one of the reasons for the high price of sand.

    In addition, the high-quality sand needed for urban construction is not readily available. Persimmon sand, limestone sand, river sand, ocean sand, etc. do not have the corresponding use characteristics, and also need to be strictly screened and filtered, which increases the cost of sand. In short, it takes a lot of sand to build a city, but it is very difficult and expensive to transport it from the desert to the city, which is one of the reasons for the high price of sand.

    Speaking of deserts, it is synonymous with barrenness and vastness. There are many deserts in our country, but when it comes to the most well-known deserts, we have to mention the Taklamakan Desert. The entire desert is about 1,000 kilometers long from east to west and 400 kilometers wide from north to south, covering an area of 330,000 square kilometers.

    Known as the Sea of Death, "Taklamakan" means "in, can't get out" in Uyghur, and some interpret it as "lost homeland". This is enough to show that the Taklamakan Desert environment is harsh and survival is difficult. But don't look at the environment here is so harsh, but from ancient times to the present, the harsh environment has never affected people's exploration of the desert lonely smoke, there are poems to praise it:

    At the post house, the turbid wine falls, and the life of the Gobi Desert is searched. The culture of the Western Regions and the Silk Road have always been a glorious stroke of ancient China.

    We always thought that with Guloulan being flooded with yellow sand, this sea of death should have been uninhabited. But with the development of science and technology and the mistaken entry of more and more tourists, a town in the desert is slowly appearing in people's field of vision. This city god leaks and disturbs the town is the town of Tazhong.

    It is under the jurisdiction of the county and is also the only desert town in China.

    Then tell me, why can't you build a city without a tree core?!

    The process of urban development is obviously a process of humanistic transformation, in which there are basically and only those who start from agriculture will take care of the natural environmental conditions, and other potato peels can burn high incense when you get to the terrain!

    1. The Sahara Desert is the second largest desert in the world after Antarctica, with an area of about 9.06 million square kilometers, making it the world's largest sandy desert. The Arabic word Sahara means "great desert". It is located south of the Atlas Mountains and the Mediterranean Sea, about north of the 14° north latitude, from the Atlantic coast in the west to the shores of the Red Sea in the east.

    It runs through the northern part of the African continent, with a length of 5,600 kilometers from east to west and a width of about 1,600 kilometers from north to south.

    2. There are various types of arid landforms in the Sahara Desert. It consists of stony deserts, gravel deserts, and deserts. The rocky deserts are mostly found in the central and eastern Sahara in the higher terrain, and the Nubian desert east of the Nile is also mainly rocky deserts.

    Gravel deserts are mostly found between rocky deserts and deserts, mainly distributed in the stony areas of the Libyan Desert, the Atlas Mountains, the Kusi Mountains and other piedmont alluvial fan areas.

    3. The area of the desert is relatively broad, except for a few higher mountains and plateaus, there are large areas everywhere. The famous ones are the Libyan Desert, the Raibyanai Desert, the Al Obari Desert, the Eastern Desert and the Western Great Desert of Algeria, the Shesh Desert, the Juf Desert, the Avana Desert, the Birma Desert, etc.

    4. The Sahara region is vast and sparsely populated, with an average of less than 1 person per square kilometer. Predominantly Arabs, followed by Berbers, etc. Population and agricultural production are mainly distributed in the Nile valley and oases, and some are mainly nomadic.

    Causes of the Sahara Desert:

    1. North Africa is located on both sides of the Tropic of Capricorn, which is controlled by the subtropical high pressure zone all year round, and the dry and hot downdraft prevails, and the African continent is narrow in the south and wide in the north, and the range controlled by the subtropical high pressure belt is large, and the dry heat area is wide.

    2. North Africa is close to the Asian continent, and the northeast trade winds blow from the eastern Luling Tongzao area, which is not easy to form precipitation, making North Africa drier.

    3. The coastline of North Africa is straight, and there is the Ethiopian plateau on the east side, which plays a blocking role in the humid air flow, so that the vast inland areas cannot be affected by the ocean.

    4. The Canary cold current passes through the west coast of North Africa, which has a cooling and dehumidifying effect on the western coastal areas and makes the desert approach the west coast.

    5. The terrain of North Africa is single, the terrain is flat, the ups and downs are not large, and the climate is single, forming a large area of desert areas.

    There are five main reasons for the formation of the Sahara Desert: because it is located on both sides of the Tropic of Capricorn, Lana is controlled by the subtropical high pressure zone all year round, and the dry and hot downdraft prevails, and the northern part of the African continent is wide, and the range of the subtropical high pressure zone is large, and the area of solid dry heat is wide; North Africa is close to the Asian continent, and the northeast trade winds blow from the eastern land, which is not easy to form precipitation, making the north more dry. The coastline of North Africa is too straight, with the Ethiopian plateau on the east side, which prevents the moist air flow from entering the interior; The Canary cold current passes through the west coast of North Africa, which has a cooling and dehumidifying effect on the western coastal areas, bringing the desert closer to the west coast. The terrain of North Africa is relatively homogeneous, with flat terrain and small undulations, plus a single climate, forming a large desert area.
