1. GREAT PLAINS
➡️ The Great Plains lie in the middle of the continent. Deep, rich soil blankets large areas of the plains in Canada and the United States. Grain grown in this region, called the “Breadbasket of North America,” feeds a large part of the world.

The Great Plains are also home to rich deposits of oil and natural gas.




2. CANADIAN SHIELD
➡️ The Canadian Shield is a raised but relatively flat plateau. It extends over eastern, central, and northwestern Canada.

The Canadian Shield is characterized by a rocky landscape pocked by an astounding number of lakes.



3. EASTERN REGION

This varied region includes the Appalachian Mountains and the Atlantic coastal plain.

North America’s older mountain ranges, including the Appalachians, rise near the east coast of the United States and Canada. These areas have been mined for rich deposits of coal and other minerals for hundreds of years.





4. CARIBBEAN REGION
➡️ The Caribbean Region includes more than 7,000 islands, islets, reefs, and cays. The region’s islands and smaller islets are varied in their topography; some have relatively flat and sandy terrain while others are rugged, mountainous, and volcanic.




5. Natural Wonders
➡️ North America’s varied landscape features many natural wonders. It has deep canyons, such as Copper Canyon in the Mexican state of Chihuahua. Denali, the continent’s highest peak, stands at 6,194 meters (20,320 feet) within Denali National Park and Preserve in the U.S. state of Alaska.
