A plain is an area with relatively low relief. Prairie refers to the Great Plains of North America which are flat. the term "Prairie" has both a generic and specific meaning. It means an expanse of level grassland in one of 3 categories either:- (1) Tall Grass Prairie, (2) Mixed or Mid Grass Prairie, or (3) Short Grass Prairie. Prairies are always composed mainly of perennial grass with certain species of flowering plants and in temperate climates. They give their names to the Prairie Provinces of Canada where they are located, e.g. Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. " A Plain" just means some expanse of flat level land which can be anywhere in the world having little or no elevation nor depression. Examples of well known Plains BUT which are not Prairies are "Salisbury Plain" in Wiltshire in the south of the United Kingdom or the "Plain of Babylon" between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers in Iraq, neither of which are perennial grasslands. So a Prairie will also be a Plain, but most Plains in the world are not Prairies.
