North Africa

North Africa is the northern part of Africa. It is usually made up of these countries:
  Mauritania
  Morocco
  Algeria
  Tunisia
  Libya
 Egypt
 Sudan

Most of north Africa is desert, which means it is very dry and does not rain very much. The Atlas Mountains in the west are less dry. The predominant ethnic groups are Arabs, Berbers, Copts, Black people (Nubians, Bejas and Haratins) and mixed race people. The biggest religion is Islam, meaning that most of the people are Muslims, with the exception of the Egyptian Copts, who are Christians.thumb|400px|North Africa (Northern Africa)
