Another important theme in this novel is identity. Almasy, who lived and traveled mostly on the desert, is where he creates an alternate identity for himself. The desert is an identity because it is constantly changing and identity can be seen the same way. People have learned that the desert is where empires rose and fell, but as time moves on, they are all forgotton and all their traces are covered by sand. “We were German, English, Hungarian, African - all of us insignificant to them. Gradually we became nationless. I came to hate nations” (138). The desert taught Almasy to hate nations and made him see that people should not be identified by their nation or where they are from. He views the desert as a place where people could live in, a place without borders or rules, free without any limitations. Through all the journeys he has taken, he finds himself realizing that one's beliefs is what makes up a person, not a name or a country. The desert in this novel is represented as a place where there is no prejudice and one's nationality is not important.

Another important theme in this novel is identity, and Almasy's experiences in the desert play a significant role in shaping his understanding of this concept. In the revised paragraph, it is important to make minor changes to improve clarity and coherence.

"Another important theme in this novel is identity. Almasy, who lived and traveled mostly in the desert, creates an alternate identity for himself. The desert serves as a metaphorical identity because, like identity, it is constantly changing. Just as empires rose and fell in the desert, they were eventually forgotten, and their traces were covered by sand. Almasy reflects on this, stating, 'We were German, English, Hungarian, African - all of us insignificant to them. Gradually we became nationless. I came to hate nations' (138). The desert teaches Almasy to reject the concept of nations and realizes that people should not be defined by their nationality or place of origin. For him, the desert symbolizes a place where people can live without borders or rules, free from limitations. Throughout his journeys, Almasy comes to understand that a person's beliefs, rather than a name or a country, constitute their true identity. In this novel, the desert is shown to be a place devoid of prejudice, where one's nationality holds no importance."
