The collision of the Indian Plate with the Eurasian Plate gave rise to the Himalayan mountain range, one of the highest and most extensive mountain systems in the world. This tectonic activity began around 50 million years ago and continues today, resulting in significant geological and seismic activity in the region. The ongoing convergence of these plates also contributes to the uplift of the Himalayas, shaping the landscape and influencing the climate of surrounding areas.
