The much lower elevations of Africa in particular is really striking, though; I hadb't really picked up on how low it is relative to other places!
The African average elevation is fairly standard, ca. 600 m (comparable to the Americas), which is close to the global average as well. While it doesn't have a lot of super high mountains, there's not much in the way of large lowland areas in Africa either. It's still noticeably taller than Europe or Australia (which are ca. 300 m average).
