	Alps - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The border between the Central Alps and the Southern Limestone Alps is the Periadriatic Seam.
		The Northern Limestone Alps are separated from the Central Eastern Alps by the Grauwacken Zone.
		The Alps arose as a result of the pressure exerted on sediments of the Tethys Ocean basin as its Mesozoic and early Cenozoic strata were pushed against the stable Eurasian landmass by the northward-moving African landmass.

	Lepontine Alps
		On considering a tolerably correct model, it is impossible not to be struck by the fact that all the valleys that contain the most considerable streams of the central Alps appear to radiate from the neighborhood of the St Gotthard Pass.
		If we measure from the summit of that pass to the head valleys of the Rhone, the Aar, the Reuss, the Vorderrhein, the Ticino, and the Ticcia, we find that the most distant lies within 9 English miles from that point.
		This fact has doubtless a significance which we are not yet able fully to appreciate, but scarcely suffices to justify the view of those who regard the St Gotthard Pass as in some special sense the central point of the whole system of the Alps.
