Saudi Arabia, a desert country with 95% of its land covered in sand, surprisingly imports sand and camels.
The sand in Saudi Arabia is not suitable for construction due to its fine grain and rounded edges, making it difficult to bind with other substances. Therefore, the country imports sand for construction purposes.
Additionally, camels are imported from countries like Australia, which has the largest population of camels, due to disease, drought, and political instability in traditional suppliers like North Africa.
Camels are valued in Saudi Arabia for their milk, meat, and increasingly for racing and entertainment purposes.
