Natural region

Usually, it is a region which is distinguished by its common natural features of geography, geology, and climate.

[1] From the ecological point of view, the naturally occurring flora and fauna of the region are likely to be influenced by its geographical and geological factors, such as soil and water availability, in a significant manner.

Human impact can be an important factor in the shaping and destiny of a particular natural region.

The Fens of eastern England, the Thai highlands, and the Pays de Bray in Normandy, are examples of this.

Others might include regions with particular geological characteristics, like badlands, such as the Bardenas Reales, an upland massif of acidic rock, or The Burren, in Ireland.
