Home›Plateaus and Highlands›ContinentBrowse ByContinentThis dimension groups landforms by the continent they belong to. Wikipedia notes that "oceanic islands are occasionally grouped with a nearby continent to divide all the world's land into geographical regions," and a landform is generally assigned to a continent the same way. Browsing by continent groups a landform with the other features of its own part of the world.FactsContinentSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonFormation AgentWell-attestedTectonic 1ContinentFilter Results5 entriesLandform TypeAllPlateaus and Highlands (World) (5)Country or Region Located InAllSweden (1)Elevation or Size BandAll-125 to 1,219 m (1)2,683 to 4,167 m (2)4,207 to 5,753 m (2)Formation ProcessAllContinental Rifting (1)Glaciation (1)Magmatism (1)Orogeny (1)Plate Tectonics (1)Volcanism (1)Area (sq km)All10,186,000 (1)17,840,000 (1)24,709,000 (1)30,370,000 (1)44,579,000 (1)Country CountAll12 (1)23 (1)44 (1)49 (1)54 (1)Highest Elevation (m)All5642 (1)5895 (1)6190 (1)6967 (1)8849 (1)PopulationAll434,254,119 (1)592,296,233 (1)745,173,774 (1)1,393,676,444 (1)4,694,576,167 (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareAfricaContinent1 entryAsiaContinent3 entriesEuropeContinent1 entryNorth AmericaContinent1 entrySouth AmericaContinent1 entrySources1.
