And I said unto you, you are come unto the mountain of the
Amorites
Which was inhabited by them, and was one of the seven nations the Israelites were to destroy, and possess their land, and which lay on the southern part of the land of Canaan:

not the mountain only, but the whole country of that people, and even all the land of Canaan.

Deuteronomy 1:20 In-Context

18 So at that time, I commanded you concerning everything you were to do.
19 We left Horeb and journeyed through that vast and terrifying desert you saw, on the way to the hills of the Amorites, exactly as the LORD our God commanded us. Then we arrived at Kadesh-barnea.
20 I said to you: You have come to the hills of the Amorites, which the LORD our God is giving to us.
21 Look! The LORD your God has laid out the land before you. Go up and take it, just as the LORD, your ancestors' God, has promised you. Don't be afraid! Don't be frightened!
22 Then all of you approached me, saying, "Let's send spies ahead of us—they can check out the land for us. Then they can return with word about the route we should use and bring a report about the cities that we'll be entering."
