In physical geography, a steppe (Russian: ÑÑÐµÐ¿Ñ, step' ; [sÊ²tÊ²epÊ²]. ) is an ecoregion, in the montane grasslands and shrublands and temperate grasslands, savannas, and shrublands biomes, characterized by grassland plains without trees apart from those near rivers and lakes.he world's largest steppe region, often referred to as the Great Steppe , is found in Eastern Europe and Central Asia, and neighbouring countries stretching from Ukraine in the west through Russia, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan to the Altai, Koppet Dag and Tian Shan ranges.
OK...I think they are mostly the same thing. Heath and Moor refer to places in England and Scotland. Steppe, I think, refers to Central Eurasia. Prairie is the word ascribed to this particular landform in the United States. Savannah and Veldt, Sub-Saharan Africa. Meadow, I believe, is different from all of them because it refers to a smaller area.
