We just learned about the mountain range the Himalayas.
The next largest mountain range is Karakoram, which means black gravel.
Because it is near the Himalayas, sometimes it is included as part of the greater Himalayan mountain range.
This mountain range is in Pakistan, India, China, Afghanistan and Tajikistan.
It has the most glaciers of any place in the world except for the north and south poles.
