But Antarctica is not inhabited.

The question was "The Sahara is the worlds largest INHABITED desert"

So which capital has more A's than Antananarivo? The suspense is killing me.

The way the question is worded, you only have to find a capital with the same number of "a"s for the statement to be false. Try Ulan Baatar.

I meant Ulaanbaatar with 5 a's as the one with more a's, this is a strange question though since Ulaanbaatar is written in many different ways. You could write Ulan Baatar with 4 a's, and even Ulanbator with only 2 a's.
