Question

Why is sahara considered a natural boundary??

Answer 1

  The Sahara desert is huge, pretty much the size of the United States, and it is one of the most hostile places on the planet. The desert is vast, very dry, the landscape occupied by sand dunes and eroded rocks, vegetation and animal life is scarce, and there's almost no water in it. Also a big problem are the sand storms that can last for days or even weeks.

  Because of all this hostile conditions, people have always avoided passing through it because they would be risking their lives, and the chances that they will be able to get through it safely and unharmed are extremely low.

Answer 2

The Sahara desert is vast, large, dry, and empty of resources. This means people/armies wouldn't walk through there because it's basically suicide. This acts as a "natural barrier" because nobody would cross the desert in the first place.

Hope this helps!
