Pretty remote are the Marquesas Islands (part of French Polynesia). The archipelago is located in the South Pacific Ocean, 3,725 km southeast of Hawaii. The nearest mainland is 5,000 km away at the southwestern coast of Mexico; the second-nearest significant land is the east coast of New Zealand, 5,230 km away.

The Sahel contains the fertile delta of the Niger, one of Africa's longest rivers. Unfortunately, the Sahel's fertile land is rapidly becoming desert as a result of drought, deforestation, and intensive agriculture. This process is known as desertification.

Even though some remain nomadic, many Maasai have begun to integrate themselves into the societies of Kenya and Tanzania. Modern ranching and wheat cultivation are becoming common.

The northernmost point on Earth is the Geographic North Pole, where the northern end of Earth's axis of rotation meets the surface on the ice of the Arctic Ocean. Then there's the Atlas Mountainsspanning Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia. These aren't just elevations; they're where the Mediterranean's calm kisses the Sahara's fury. The Drakensberg Range, in contrast, with its dramatic escarpments and biodiversity, stands as a testament to South Africa's and Lesotho's evolutionary tale, intertwining nature's artistry with anthropological history. 3. Deserts:Mediterranean Sea forms the separation between Europe and Africa, also represented in the map of Africa. A peninsula named 'Horn of Africa', forms in the easternmost projection of the continent, and it contains countries of Djibouti, Eritrea, Ethiopia, and Somalia.

Saharan plants survive thanks to root systems that plunge as far as 24 meters (80 feet) underground. In parts of the Sahara, plants cannot take root at all. In the southern Libyan Desert, for instance, no greenery exists for more than 195 kilometers (120 miles).
