The Quiz: What is the largest country without a river?
A Qatar
B Saudi Arabia
C Tonga
There are no permanent rivers in Saudi Arabia. The oil-rich nation on the Arabian Peninsula gets all its water from mountain runoff, desalinization, and groundwater. Ephemeral rivers are numerous in Saudi Arabia, though. On rare occasions when heavy rains arrive, the rainwater fills riverbeds, called wadis, that are normally dry year round.
The correct answer to this quiz is Saudi Arabia.
