In what way was the Kalahari Desert formed?

I have reason to believe it is sort of in “inland desert”, but I’m not sure, and am having trouble with an assignment, due to the little time I’ve had to do it.

Your help is much appreciated!

The Kalahari Desert is part of the huge sand basin, reaching from the Orange River up to Angola, over the east of Namibia, into Botswana and South Africa. The erosion of soft stone formations created the sand masses. The red parallel dunes with wind-shaped sand ridges were stabilised through vegetation and are so typical of the landscape in the Kalahari. Unlike the dunes of the Namib Desert, those of the Kalahari are stable and not wandering. Dominant vegetation: grasses, thorny shrubs and Acacia trees.
