Flattest land
59°32′N
Three continents, 11,610 km (7,215 miles) of land, and a smaller elevation range than any comparable latitude.
Flattest means the smallest gap between the highest and lowest land elevations: 2,205 m here. Only latitudes crossing at least 4,000 km of land qualify, so a tiny island cannot win.
