Land rises when the tectonic plates, which forms the Earth's crust like a jigsaw puzzle, move and grind against each other; thus, continents and land masses move up against each other to form mountains and so on. Land forms from this and also from erosion due to environmental factors such as weather: wind, rainfall level, etc. Hope this helps! ;-)
