Temperate grasslands are found mainly outside of the tropics, in temperate regions. In moist areas, short, thick, green plots of grass cover treeless, and seemingly endless, hills and plains. Eurasia's steppe grassland is the largest grassland in the world. Steppe means grassy plain in Russian. The steppe once covered 2, 500 miles (4,023 kilometers) of land from western Russia to central Asia. Another grassland, called the puszta, which resides just west of the steppe dominates most of Hungary. A moist grassland known as the prairie fills in central lowlands between the Rocky and Appalachian Mountains. South America's largest grassland, called pampa, which means plain, covers most east-central areas of Argentina.
