Scenarios about 'grasslands'
Vast open ecosystems dominated by grasses with few trees, grasslands cover approximately 25% of Earth's land surface across continents. These biomes have historically shaped human development through supporting nomadic herding cultures, agricultural civilizations, and major migration routes, while providing habitat for distinctive fauna. In alternate history scenarios, different management or climate patterns affecting grasslands could dramatically alter patterns of human settlement, empire formation, and technological development.
