Geography of Mexico World Facts Index Mexico Map of Mexico Topography and Drainage Two prominent mountain rangesthe Sierra Madre Occidental and the Sierra Madre Orientaldefine northern Mexico. Both are extensions of ranges found in the United States. The Sierra Madre Occidental on the west is a continuation of California's Sierra Nevada (with a break in southeastern California and extreme northern Mexico), and the Sierra Madre Oriental on the east is a southward extension of the Rocky Mountains of New Mexico and Texas. Between these two ranges lies the Mexican altiplano (high plain), a southern continuation of the Great Basin and high deserts that spread over much of the western United States. Beginning approximately fifty kilometers from the United States border, the Sierra Madre Occidental extends 1,250 kilometers south to the Río Santiago, where it merges with the Cordillera Neovolcánica range that runs east-west across central Mexico. The Sierra Madre Occidental lies approximately 300 kilometers inland from the west coast of Mexico at its northern end but approaches to within fifty kilometers of the coast near the Cordillera Neovolcánica. The northwest coastal plain is the name given the lowland area between the Sierra Madre Occidental and the Gulf of California. The Sierra Madre Occidental averages 2,250 meters in elevation, with peaks reaching 3,000 meters. The Sierra Madre Oriental starts at the Big Bend region of the Texas-Mexico border and continues 1,350 kilometers until reaching Cofre de Perote, one of the major peaks of the Cordi-llera Neovolcánica. As is the case with the Sierra Madre Occidental, the Sierra Madre Oriental comes progressively closer to the coastline as it approaches its southern terminus, reaching to within seventy-five kilometers of the Gulf of Mexico. The northeast coastal plain extends from the eastern slope of the Sierra Madre Oriental to the Gulf of Mexico. The median elevation of the Sierra Madre Oriental is 2,200 meters, with some peaks at 3,000 meters.

(Maps 34 kb 150 kb Did you know that the Earth was formed 4600 million years ago? The Earth's great land masses are called continents. Although there are differing ideas as to the number of continents, Mexico's Department of Public Education accepts the version that they consist of Africa, America, Asia, Europe, Australia and Antarctica, six continents. However, some people believe that North and South America should be considered as separate continents even though they are joined together; they get a total of seven continents. For certain scientific and geographic purposes, Europe and Asia are sometimes viewed as a single continent called Eurasia. Do you know which continent Mexico is on? It is on the American continent, which stretches from pole to pole of the planet. America is made up of North America, Central America and South America. Mexico is in North America .
