The Great Plains
This vast core of the continent includes the states of Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas and Oklahoma, with parts of Texas. These states are flat, though the land gets rougher and of higher elevation as you move west, true prairies. In its vastness more than 1,000 miles wide this is an imposing region, one of the world's richest sources of agricultural products.
