First I think this question doesnt belong in this category. Request you to contact Y!A Team to put this in the right category.
To answer your question, the Asian range of mountains (Himalayan, Hindu-kush, Karakoram etc) virtually HOG the top 450 mountains in the world. See the list below..
1 Mount Everest 8,850m 29,035 ft Nepal
2 Qogir (K2) 8,611m 28,250 ft Pakistan
3 Kangchenjunga 8,586m 28,169 ft Nepal
4 Lhotse 8,501m 27,920 ft Nepal
5 Makalu I 8,462m 27,765 ft Nepal
6 Cho Oyu 8,201m 26,906 ft Nepal
7 Dhaulagiri 8,167m 26,794 ft Nepal
8 Manaslu I 8,156m 26,758 ft Nepal
9 Nanga Parbat 8,125m 26,658 ft Pakistan
10 Annapurna I 8,091m 26,545 ft Nepal
The other tall mountains of the Americas and Europe doesnt even cross 3/4th of Mt.Everest!!! You wouldnt believe the tallest mountain outside asia with a ranking of 485 is the Aconcagua, Argentina!!!!

Mauna Loa in Hawaii. It starts from the ocean floor, and is one of the Hawaiian Islands. It is much taller than Mt. Everest. Other tall mountians are in the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. However, normally these don't count, leaving Mt. Everest as the tallest, and the Himilayas as the tallest mountains.

The biggest Mountain in world is Mauna Loa in Hawaiian probably because of its long, gently sloping shape....
The total height of Mauna Loa from its true base on the bottom of the ocean, in the Hawaiian Trough, exceeds that of Everest by over 3/4 of a mile.
Mauna Loa takes up a lot of space because its mass is 9,700 cubic miles/40,000 cu km

Mount Everest from the Himalayan mountains, 8 848 m high or maybe higher now, because it grew like the young mountains do.
