Nobody lives in these 12 empty countries because they are too far away and not very friendly to people who want to live there.
Imagine you have a favorite toy that's right next to you, it’s easy to play with. But if the toy is at the other end of the world, it’s hard to reach, and sometimes it doesn’t even work well when you get there. That’s what happens in these countries.
Why They Are Too Far Away
Some of these empty countries are like that faraway toy, they’re in places where it's very cold or very hot all the time. Think about wearing a heavy coat every day, even during summer! It makes living there not so fun.
Also, sometimes these countries don’t have enough food or water, which is like being on a long trip without snacks or drinks, you get tired and hungry quickly.
Why They Are Not Very Friendly
Some of these empty countries are also hard to live in because they have big dangers, like strong winds that blow sand everywhere, or mountains so high it feels like climbing to the sky!
It’s like having a toy that breaks easily, you try to play with it, but it doesn’t last long.
So, nobody lives there because it's just not as fun or easy as living in places closer to home.
