## National elevation ranges

Of all countries, Lesotho has the world's highest low point at 1,400 metres (4,593 ft). Other countries with high low points include Rwanda 950 metres (3,117 ft) and Andorra 840 metres (2,756 ft). Countries with very low high points include Maldives 5 metres (16 ft), Tuvalu, 5 metres (16 ft) and the Marshall Islands 10 metres (33 ft). These island countries also have the smallest range between their lowest (sea level) and highest points, and are very sensitive to changes in sea level.
The highest and lowest points in China constitute the greatest elevation range within any single country at 9,002 metres (29,534 ft). The elevation ranges are also great in Nepal 8,789 metres (28,835 ft), Pakistan 8,611 metres (28,251 ft), and India 8,588 metres (28,176 ft).
Monaco's elevation range is among the greatest relative to surface area. Within its 2.02 km$^2$ territory, there is a difference of 140 m between its highest and lowest points, giving a ratio of 69 m for every km$^2$. In Australia's 7,686,850 square kilometres (2,967,910 sq mi) area, there is only a 2,244 metres (7,362 ft) difference between the highest and lowest points, which gives a ratio of 292 micrometres (0.0115 in) per km$^2$.
