Piedmont Plateau

The Piedmont Plateau is a gentle, elevated land area located between the Appalachian Mountains and the Atlantic Coastal Plain, primarily in the eastern United States. It features rolling hills, fertile soils, and moderate elevation. The region is known for its rich history, agricultural productivity, and urban centers like Atlanta and Richmond. The plateau’s terrain results from ancient geological processes that created a distinct transition zone, serving as a key area for settlement, transportation, and economic activity due to its favorable terrain and resources.
