It covers a combined area of 13 million km². The League extends from Morocco in the west, southward to the Comoros, eastward to Somalia, and northward to Iraq. Geography of each stateThe Arab League has 22 member states. See the geography of each state:
RegionsTerrains in the area can be divided into three main types: the large arid desert covering most of it, the fertile south and north, and finally the high mountains of the Atlas, Ahaggar, Zagros and the Anti-Lebanon mountains, along with the Hijaz Mountain range. The Arab League can also be divided into two continental parts: Asian, which has 12 states, and African, which is larger and has 10 states.

Almost 80% of the Arab world is covered in desert (10,666,637 of 13,333,296 km2), stretching from Mauritania and Morocco to Oman and the UAE. The second most common terrain is the semi-arid terrain, which found in all Arab countries except Lebanon and Comoros. Several deserts span the Arab League:
The highest point in the Arab League is in Morocco called Jbel Toubkal, standing 4,165m tall, making it the 40th highest place on earth, and 6th in Africa,[3] next comes Jabal an Nabi Shu'ayb (at 3,666 m)[3] in Yemen and Cheekha Dar (at 3,611 m)[4] in Iraq. The lowest point in the Arab League is the Dead sea between Jordan and Palestine. At 1,312 feet (400 meters) below sea level it is also the lowest point on Earth.[5] ClimateThe hottest temperature recorded in the Arab League took place in Sudan on June 25, 2010, reaching 49.6 °C (121.3 °F) in Dongola, breaking a record set in 1987.[6] See also
