The Appalachians are older than the Alps. The Appalachians were created many eras ago when North America crashed into Europe. Then the Appalachians were split apart when the Atlantic Ocean opened up. The Mid Atlantic ridge and other phenomena split them into The Mountains of Norway and Sweden, The Highlands of Scotland, The Appalachians of North America, and the Ouchita Mountains of Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Texas. The Alps were pushed up when Italy moved up and Crashed into Europe. That happened only a few Million years ago.
