the Earth's longest mountain range lies under the sea. More than 56,000 kilometers (35,000 mi) long, this mountain range, called the Mid-Ocean Ridge system, snakes its way around the globe. This whole study of undersea is fascinating beyond words.. The unknowns there is as(not quite) mysterious as that of space

Kyrgyzstan is a landlocked country in Central Asia, bordering Kazakhstan, People's Republic of China, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. The mountainous region of the Tian Shan covers the majority of the nation, with the remainder made up of its valleys and basins. Issyk-Kul in the north-western Tian Shan is the largest lake in Kyrgyzstan and the second largest mountain lake in the world after Titicaca. The highest peaks are in the Kakshaal-Too range, forming the Chinese border. Pik Pobedy (Victory Peak), at 24,400 feet (7,439 m), is the highest point and is considered by geologists (though not mountaineers) to be the northernmost 23,000 foot (7,000 m) peak in the world.

Kilimanjaro carries a few titles of "highest" according to the pages...  One is highest in Africa, one as highest active volcano, and another as highest free-standing peak (no mountain range like Himilayas).  Samahani, can't find a listing that goes far enough down for a rank in peak height in the world; it's after 50 at least I think!\n\nFrom first source:  Rising to a height of 5, 985 meters, (19,340 feet) Mt. Kilimanjaro is the highest peak in Africa, arguably the world's highest volcano and the highest freestanding mountain in the world. It also takes its place as one of the 'Seven Summits', a holy grail for climbers consisting of the highest peaks in each of the seven continents. \n\nFrom second source:  Africa's tallest mountain (der höchste Berg Afrikas) was long thought to be nothing but a legend. After all, how could there be a snow-capped peak just three degrees south of the equator? But German-speaking explorers were the first Europeans to ever see and climb Kilimanjaro—and establish the mountain's existence.\nKilimanjaro is also the world's highest mountain that can be climbed by hiking (walking), but the lower, more jagged Mawensi volcanic peak (17,564 ft) was not climbed until 1912 and requires mountaineering experience.
