| − | There are a number of places in the world with no mountains, though the exact definition of ""what makes a mountain"" drives the exact list. Using the 1000 ft from base standard:
| + | <languages /><br /> |
| − | *In '''Canada''' there are no true mountains in the Provinces of Saskatchewan or Prince Edward Island.
| + | <noinclude><translate><!--T:1--> |
| − | *In the '''United States''' these states lack any land over 1000 ft : Delaware, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, Rhode Island and the District of Columbia. To this list you could add states that have no local elevation difference of more than 1,000 ft (called a prominence - a rise above the surrounding terrain): Connecticut, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, New Jersey, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Wisconsin. (17 total states without mountains)

| − | *The highest elevation in '''Bermuda''' is 43m, which is definitely not a mountain!
| + | {{RequirementsHeader}} |
| − | *The highest point of the '''Netherlands''' is only 321m, and that spot is actually the three-country point with Belgium and Germany. As one Dutch person said "So, not only is it barely a hill, we managed to share the thing with two other countries!"

| − | *Highest point in '''The Gambia''' is Red Rock (53 m or 175 ft), which is not very much of a hike.
| + | ==Requirements== <!--T:2--> |
| − | *'''Kuwait''' is pretty flat, with the highest point in its desert terrain being Mutla Ridge (306 m or 1,004 ft)
| + | {{reqreq|page={{PAGENAME}}|num=1}} |
| − | *'''Guinea-Bissau''' is a fairly large country but its highest point is an unnamed location on only 300 m or 984 ft above sea level.
| + | {{reqreq|page={{PAGENAME}}|num=2}} |
| − | *'''Lithuania, Latvia''' and '''Estonia''' lack mountains, with the hills reaching just over 1000 ft at best.
| + | {{reqreq|page={{PAGENAME}}|num=3}} |
| − | *An extreme example is '''The Maldives''' where the best view is found at 2.4 m or 7.9 ft above sea level. '''Ashmore and Cartier Islands''', '''Spratly Islands''', '''Tuvalu, Cocos (Keeling) Islands, Tokelau,''' and the '''Marshall Islands''' all top out at or under 10 m high for natural land height.
