The Northeastern Plain
The Northeastern Plain is located east of present-day Mongolia. It is a land of low hills and plains. The natural vegetation is mostly prairie grass. In ancient times, the grass provided food for horses, sheep, and other animals raised by herders. Two major rivers run through the Northeastern Plain: the Liao (lyow) and the Sungari (SOONG-guh-ree).

The North China Plain
This region is sometimes called the “Land of the Yellow Earth” because the ground is covered by yellow limestone silt. The silt comes from the Gobi Desert. It is carried by the wind to the North China Plain. The river that runs through the plain is also full of yellow silt. The silt gives the river its name, Huang He (Yellow River).

The Chang Jian Basins
The Chang Jiang Basins are areas of low, wet coastal plains. The basins are located along the river called the Chang Jiang.
This river is even longer than the Huang He. In fact, Chang Jiang means “Long River.” It has hundreds of tributaries. People use the river to move goods between eastern and western areas of the region.
