The number 40 in The Bible means a period of trial or tribulation, the Israelites had to wander the desert for 40 years. They were often hungry and thirsty. Since the Israelites had been imprisoned under Egyptian rule, many still worshipped pagan religions, and so they had to be taught about God.

The Question is based on an error. They spent the 40 years in more than one region.

Most of these places (other than the Sinai) are in present-day Jordan; and a detailed map of Jordan, to this day, reveals some of the place-names stated in the Torah.
