The earth has been 4.6 billion years since its birth. In such a long period of time, the earth's crust has never stopped moving. Horizontal movement has caused the Grand Canyon and the ocean, while vertical movement has long been the peak of the world. Except for the Chogori, the top ten peaks in the world are all located in the Himalayas.
