Flood Plain

Flood Plain Definition | Radience Gaming

A wide valley through which a river flows and can overflow

Real World Example

Imagine you're trying to pour a large pot of soup into a small bowl without spilling. Just like when the soup overflows the bowl, a floodplain is a natural area where a river's water spreads out when it overflows its banks. In this analogy, the pot is like the river carrying water, the bowl is like the valley or river channel, and the soup spilling over is akin to the river flooding and spreading across the floodplain, showing how both situations involve overflow due to limited capacity in a confined space.
