Las Pampas. Which is Quechua for "The Plains".

This area in South America spans the provinces of La Pampa, Buenos Aires, Santa Fe, Entre Rios, and Cordoba in Argentina, Most of Uruguay, and the province of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.

It gets 23.6 In. (600 mm.) - 47.2 In. (1200 mm.) of rain a year.

This makes them comparable to the North American Great Plains in which they both possess fertile soil used mainly for agriculture.

But frequent wildfires ensure that nothing taller than grasses flourish and trees are a rare sight.
