Group of Tuareg People

I have chosen the Tuareg People who are a community of nomadic people who live in the Sahara desert. The Sahara is located in North Africa.
Statistics show that the tuareg people consist of approximately 1.2 million people.
Majority or the Tuareg people are located in Mali and Niger, however being nomadic they also move around Libya, Algeria, Burkina Faso and Nigeria. The name Tuareg is an arabic term meaning abandoned by God.

The latitude and longitude of the Sahara Desert is 23.0797° N, 12.6123° E. The bold lines on the map below show where the Tuareg people are located.
