Loftiest Continent

The average height of land
above sea for the whole world is
no less than 2,100 feet. The lofti-
est continent is Asia, which stands
at an average height of 5000 feet.
Africa and South America come
second, each a thousand feet low
er than Asia, and then North
America, with 1900 feet. The
height of Europe is only $40 feet.
The vast plains of Poland and
Russia keep the average down.
Of all the continents, Australia
is the lowest, yet still it's height is
800 feet above sea. The reason is
that it is the oldest continent and
has been above water longer than
any other land. So most of it's
mountains have crumbled down
and more than one-third of the
area has not a hill left.
1t may be that Antarctica is
higher than Asia, but no accurate
measurements have yet been OBJ
tanned.
