Geography

My city is near the west side of the African Plate, and it is 2267 miles or 3648 kilometers from it.

After years of pressure under the ground, metamorphic rocks have formed, but because of the distance to the coastline it is possible that some erosion turned some of the metamorphic rocks into sedimentary rocks.
