The Tibetan Plateau is an immense upland, a little 3500 by 1500 kilometers in size, averaging some-more than 5000 meters in elevation. It includes almost all a world's territory aloft than 4000 meters. Its southern rim, a Himalaya-Karakoram complex, contains not only Mount Everest and all 13 other peaks aloft than 8000 meters, though hundreds of 7000-meter peaks each aloft than anywhere else upon Earth.

The Tibetan Plateau is not only a largest, top area in a universe today; it might be a largest and top in all of geologic history. That's because a set of events which formed it appears to be unique: a full-speed collision of two continental plates.
