The Indo-Gangetic Plain, also known as the Indus-Ganga Plain and the North Indian River Plain, is a 630-million-acre (2.5-million km2) fertile plain encompassing northern regions of the Indian subcontinent, including most of northern and eastern India.
A coastal plain is a piece of land that is lying low and adjacent to the sea coast. … The river plain can also known as just plains that are formed with minimum elevation. Rivers plains mainly occurs along the bottoms of valleys, near mountains.

Also, the North Central Plains region is higher and hillier than the Coastal Plains. You can see the difference right away when you cross the Balcones Escarpment. … It is even flatter than the Coastal Plains, but it contains deep canyons in some areas.
Similarities: Their land is flat, they have few trees in the west, the soil is rich, they grow wheat and corn, and raise cattle.
The Coastal Plains have many rich natural resources. The pine forests of East Texas produce large amounts of lumber and other wood prod- ucts.
The northwestern regions are higher in elevation than the rest of the state. The landscape of Florida comprises four geographical land areas: the Atlantic Coastal Plain, the East Gulf Coastal Plain.
The Gulf is a very accessible body of water. It’s surrounded to the north, east, and west by five US states (Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas), by six Mexican states to the west and south (Tamaulipas, Veracruz, Tabasco, Campeche, Yucatan, Quintana Roo), and by the island of Cuba to the southeast.
