Using 9,000,000 sq. km as the area of the Sahara (from Wikipedia), if the Sahara were a country, it would rank just between Brasil (8,514,877 sq. km) and China (9,598,094 sq. km). The United States is the next larger country at 9,629,091 sq. km. So no country is the "same" size as the Sahara based on these figures.

Yes, the Sahara desert is bigger; no, it is not the largest desert in the world. The Sahara is the hottest. The largest desert is Antarctica. Deserts are not always associated with hot temperatures, but in fact, it is associated with the dryness.
