The Mojave is an arid desert, spanning 124,000 sq km (47,877 sq mi).
Primarily situated in California, it also occupies parts of Arizona,
Utah and Nevada. The primary native inhabitants of the area were the
Mojave, though the Paiutes and the Chemehueves were also present.
Today, the majority of the Mojave Desert is sparsely populated, though
it is located between two of the most popular and conventional tourist
cities in the world, Los Angeles and Las Vegas.
