Answer:
Nepal is commonly divided into three landform types -- mountains, hills and plains -- and six physiographic regions, all aligned from west to east in accordance with the orientation of the Himalayas.
Explanation:
The Himalayas, the highest and one of the youngest of the world's mountain ranges, dominate northeastern Nepal. Formed by tectonic collision -- the Indian plate is grinding under, or subducting beneath, the Eurasian plate -- this great nest of summits rears to tremendous elevations.
