The lowlands of the AfarDepression are dominated by heat and drought.
The AfarDepression biome is characterized as desert scrubland.
The AfarDepression is a plate tectonic triple junction where the spreading ridges that are forming the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden emerge on land and meet the East African Rift.
Afar (or Danakil) are an ethnic group who reside principally in the Danakil Desert in the Afar Region of Ethiopia and in Eritrea and Djibouti.
The Afar language (Cushitic) is spoken in the Afar Region of Ethiopia, eastern Eritrea, and Djibouti, but as the Afar are traditionally nomadic herders, they may be found further afield.
Afar are organised into clan families, and into classes -- asaimara ('reds') who are the dominant class politically, and the adoimara ('whites') who are a working class.
