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.
