'''Desert worlds''' are desolate planets with no bodies of water and with completely desert terrains. Since "desert world" only refers to the planet's terrain, most human-populated desert worlds fall into a technical [[Class (planet)|Imperial class]], such as [[civilized civilised world]], [[feral world]] or [[death world]]. Inhabited desert worlds often produce tough people who know how to survive in the most barren of environments.{{Cite This}}
Generally, the planets are desert worlds when they are colonised, but in some extreme cases such as [[virus bomb]]ing, a formerly habitable planet had its ecosystem completely destroyed, leading to planetwide desertification. This was the case on [[Tallarn]] after it was bombarded by the [[Iron Warriors]].{{Cite This}}
