The type of land that is prone to flooding are broad and flat usually situated on the banks of a river or main waterway. Rivers that flood are regarded in three different stages. They are:-
ONE:- Water comes off the mountains, eroding the beds and banks of the river as it flows.
TWO:- This type river travels through broad valleys which slows the current of the river down. If the current is slow it will transport less material down the river.
THREE:- Flood-plain stage. Little if not any erosion takes place most of the material tha tis carried in the current is suspended and deposited to the form a flood plain.
