plains

Plains are flat or gently rolling areas of land that cover large expanses, typically characterized by a lack of significant trees and a predominance of grasses and shrubs. They are found on every continent and can be formed through various geological processes, such as erosion or sedimentation. Plains often have fertile soil, making them ideal for agriculture. They can experience a range of climates, from wet to dry, influencing the types of vegetation and wildlife present. The Great Plains of North America and the Pampas of Argentina are well-known examples of this landscape.
