the two major areas with the highest sunshine duration, measured as annual average, are the central and the eastern sahara desert—covering vast, mainly desert countries such as egypt, sudan, libya, chad, and niger—and the southwestern united states (arizona, california, nevada). the city claiming the official title of the sunniest in the world is yuma, arizona, with over 4,000 hours (about 91% of daylight time) of bright sunshine annually, but many climatological books suggest there may be sunnier areas in north africa. in the belt encompassing northern chad and the tibesti mountains, northern sudan, southern libya, and upper egypt, annual sunshine duration is estimated at over 4,000 hours. there is also a smaller, isolated area of sunshine maximum in the heart of the western section of the sahara desert around the eglab massif and the erg chech, along the borders of algeria, mauritania, and mali where the 4,000-hour mark is exceeded, too. some places in the interior of the arabian peninsula receive 3,600–3,800 hours of bright sunshine annually. the largest sun-baked region in the world (over 3,000 hours of yearly sunshine) is north africa. the sunniest month in the world is december in eastern antarctica, with almost 23 hours of bright sun daily.
