What is most of Saudi land covered by?

Most of Saudi Arabia's vast terrain is characterized by desert landscapes. The Empty Quarter (Rub' al Khali) in the south extends northward. It is one of the largest areas of continuous sand cover in the world and encompasses around one-third of the Arabian Peninsula. This expansive desert region encompasses parts of Saudi Arabia as well as regions extending into Oman, the United Arab Emirates, and Yemen.
