Just a funny idea, based on my childhood nostalgic of "Donald duck" comics, why not design the nowhere land as Timbuktu, so maybe people stop asking "can i conquer Sahara ?"

1. It wouldn't make sense history-wise (no one conquered Sahara, really, until the modern times, simply because controlling the greatest sandbox on earth is pretty much impossible without satellites etc, and, honestly, it's really not worth the trouble either)Quote:

There actually was a Timbuktu out in the middle of the Sahara, but it wasn't founded for more than a thousand years after the start date. So even as an uncouqerable settlement, that name would be ahistoric.
