I would say Libya would be the largest country with no permanent river.
Bodies of Water and Rivers: Libya's position along the Mediterranean Sea influences its climate and geographical features. While the country's coastline spans about 1,770 kilometers (1,100 miles), Libya has no permanent rivers, given its predominantly desert landscape. The most significant among its temporary rivers is the Wadi Al Hayat, which flows through the Fezzan region around October in the rainy season. Additionally, there are numerous oases scattered across Libya, acting as vital water sources in the desert. Some of the prominent oases include the Ghat, Sabha, and Al Kufrah oases.
