The Kalahari Basin, also known as the Kalahari Depression, Okavango Basin or the Makgadikgadi Basin,[1] is an endorheic basin and large lowland area covering approximately 725,293 km2 - mostly within Botswana and Namibia, but also parts of Angola, South Africa, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. The outstanding physical feature in the basin, and occupying the centre, is the large Kalahari Desert.
The perennial river bifurcation of Selinda Spillway (or Magweggana River), on the Cuando River, connects the Kalahari basin to the Zambezi Basin.[2]
