A cycle of films about physical and geographical countries. So scientists call dissimilar territories that were formed during the geological history of the Earth. There are thirteen of them in Russia. Each has its own geological structure, relief features, and hence the special natural conditions that determine its originality.
Altai-Sayan country. It is located in the center of Asia, occupies the western part of the South Siberian mountains. The main time of formation is 400-500 million years ago. It is the highest elevation among the mountainous countries of North Asia. In Altai, the Katun Ridge is the highest. It also contains the highest mountain in Siberia - Belukha. One of the Belukha glaciers gives rise to the main river of the Katun region.
Teletskoye zero is located in a tectonic basin. Despite its small size, it is the third in Russia in terms of fresh water reserves.
Tuva occupies the southern slopes of the Sayans, the Tannu-Ola ridge and the Ubsunur basin. This land is rich in history. Many nomadic peoples passed here, leaving behind mounds, petroglyphs, stones with images. Here begins one of the greatest rivers of Siberia - the Yenisei.
