Spain

Spain's topography is marked by a striking diversity, characterized primarily by its elevated central plateau known as the Meseta Central, which rises between 2,000 and 2,500 feet (610 to 762 meters) above sea level. This vast highland is surrounded by several mountain ranges, including the Pyrenees to the northeast, reaching elevations of over 11,000 feet (3,353 meters), and the Sierra Nevada in the south, where Mulhacén, the highest peak in mainland Spain, stands at about 11,414 feet (3,479 meters)​. The country's terrain features steep slopes, deep river valleys, and extensive coastal plains, with the Cantabrian Mountains and Sistema Central forming important geological barriers​. Additionally, Spain's coastal areas are mostly characterized by narrow plains, with only a few significant harbors​. This varied landscape contributes to the country's rich biodiversity and has influenced its historical development and cultural evolution.
