In Terry Pratchett's Discworld, Sto Plains is a rich country, full of silt and cabbage fields. Every inch is covered by neat little kingdoms. These kingdoms' borders are ever changing, like wriggling snakes as formal wars, marriage pacts, complex alliances, and bad mapping change the political shape of the land. The thick, black, rich loam of the Sto Plains was constructed over aeons by periodic flooding of the River Ankh and every bit of it has at some time travelled along someone's alimentary canal.
The kingdoms of the Sto Plains include Sto Lat, which ruled by Queen Kelirehenna, and includes the duchy of Sto Helit. Other known locations are the city-states of Pseudopolis, Quirm and Ankh-Morpork and the small towns of Scrote and Big Cabbage.
- Principle export: Cabbages
- Flora: Cabbages
- Fauna: Things that eat cabbages
Most young people who leave the farming areas of the Plains for life in the big city would happily never see a cabbage again.
