Correct! The Antarctic Polar Desert covers the continent of Antarctica and has a size of about 5.5 million square miles. The second-largest desert is the Arctic Polar Desert. The Sahara Desert comes in at number three.

When most people think of a desert, they imagine a landscape covered with sand and sand dunes. However a desert is defined by the amount of precipitation a region receives (or the lack thereof). The two largest deserts are the polar deserts underlying the ice strata.

Well done. TBIY

Good guess, as chop suey is believed by some to have been invented in America, but no.
