FEATURES OF NEPAL
Nepal is a small landlocked country lying inthe lap of the Himalayas, the world's highest mountain ranges. About 75% of its area is mountainous. Still the topography is quite uneven. Within a surface distance of hardly 200 km, the altitude ranges from about 60 m from the sea level to the highest summit of the world, i.e Mount Everest.
On the basis of geographical features, Nepal in divided into three distinct regions which run east-west across the country.
The Himalayan region comprises the highest areas of Nepal above an altitude of 3300 m from the sea level among the northern belt of the country. Many of the highest peaks in the world above 8000 m, including Mt.Everest, the highest of all, lie in this region. Kanchanjunhga, Makalu, Lhotse, Choyu, Dhaulagiri and Annapurna are some other high Himalayan peaks.The surface is very steep, rocky and infertile. The climate is very cold and snowy. High peaks above 5000 m above are always covered by ice. Mustang, Manang, etc lying beyond the high mountains are rain shadows areas. This means they remain dry due to their locations on the leeward side of the mountains. There is mountain vegetation ranging from extensive pine forest to poor tundra type according to heights. This region occupies altogether 16 districts like Humla, Dolpa, Rasuwa, Solukhumbu, Taplejung and covers about 15% of the total area of the country.
FEATURES OF TAMIL NADU
The land can be divided into five major physical divisions - the Kurinji or mountainous region, the Mullai or forest region, the Palai or arid region, the Marudham or the fertile plains and the Neidhal or coastal region. The Eastern and Western Ghats meet in Tamil Nadu and run along its eastern and western boundaries. The Cauvery River, originating in the Coorg district of the neighboring state of Karnataka, is the lifeline of the state. The lush Coromandal plains are irrigated by the Cauvery and its Thanjavur-Nagapattinam delta is called the granary of Tamil Nadu.Palar, Pennar, Vaigai, and Tamiraparani are the other rivers of the state.
