Midwest

Midwestern Aloria, generally referred to simply as the Midwest (also referred to as the Great Plains), is a geographic region within Aloria, reffered to the plain, rural landscape area between the Yellow Mountains and the Ultran and Verita Rivers. The region lies mostly in two states: Ultran and Gavonshire.

While it is true that these states are relatively flat, there is yet a measure of geographical variation. In particular, the southern Midwest, lying near the foothills of the Kurmal Mountains, demonstrate a high degree of topographical variety. Prairies cover most of the states west of the Ultran River. Rainfall decreases from west to east, resulting in different types of prairies, with the tallgrass prairie in the wetter southern region, mixed-grass prairie in the eastern Great Plains, and shortgrass prairie towards the rain shadow of the yellow Mountains. Today, these three prairie types largely correspond to the corn/wheat area, the wheat belt, and the western rangelands, respectively.

The majority of the Midwest can now be categorized as urbanized areas or pastoral agricultural areas.
