6. REALLY HIGH HIGHEST POINTS

Name one of the countries whose highest point is among the 9 highest highest points by country in the world. (Two of the countries have a highest point that is the same elevation and therefore they are tied on the list; this means that there are actually 10 countries from which to choose.) The country must be a sovereign state that is a member of the United Nations.
