Best Answer

A mountain is something that is higher than the rest of the land.

You can't be "higher than the rest of the land" unless there is lower land to be higher than.

If there were no space between mountains, then all land would be at the altitude of the top of the mountains, and it would all be flat, and there would be no mountains.
