Pampas
:
The Pampas are the richest agricultural land in South America. The pampas is a very large, damp unbroken plain. Even though the majority of the land is flat there are still a few places where there are mountains. The pampas include many provinces in Argentina including La Pampa and part of the Buenos Aires province. It is the main economic center for the nation and is the most heavily populated. In Quechua the word pampa means unbroken plain. Animals found in the pampas include guanaco, foxes, skunks, viscachas, bush dogs, and birds related to many North American prairie birds. The Buenos Aires region of the pampas has many huge and violent storms.The Pampas are surrounded by the Chaco to the north, the Colorado River to the south, the Atlantic to the east, and the Sierra de Cordoba to the west. The pampas are in the north part of Argentina.
