In terms of its mountains and the area they cover, Türkiye is considered among the countries with a higher elevation (1,132 meters). The mountains in Türkiye extend in mountain ranges in the northern and southern regions. Their height increases when we reach the Eastern Anatolia region. These mountain ranges were formed on an east-west axis due to the interaction between the northward-moving African and Arabian Plates and the relatively stable Eurasian Plate.
