champaign
Flat rural expanse
Champaign is an expanse of flat, open country—level terrain without trees or significant features.
The word is archaic or literary, largely displaced by plain or prairie: The army advanced across the champaign.
It shares a root with campaign, both evoking open fields where battles were fought.
