Riverland
Stream-carved country
Riverland refers to land along or surrounding a river, especially fertile lowland areas shaped by river activity.
The term often appears in proper names for regions defined by their rivers: the Riverland wine region of South Australia, the Murray Riverland.
As a common noun, it describes river-adjacent territory: farmers working the riverland.
