 Tibet, a region and former independent country in Central Asia, is the homeland of the Tibetan people. All or most of Tibet (depending on definition of region and history) is controlled by the People's Republic of China (PRC). Since 1959 the former government of Tibet, led by the 14th Dalai Lama, has maintained a government in exile at Dharamsala, in northern India. Tibet is often called the 'Roof of the World' because it has Earth's highest mountains (Himalaya) and a vast arid plateau at an average elevation of 14,000 ft. The great rivers of Mekong, Yangtse, Selween, Tsangpo, and Yellow all flow out of Tibet.
