Doab
Land between two converging, or confluent, rivers, mainly in the Punjab / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Doab (English: /ˈdoʊɑːb/) is a term used in South Asia[1] for the tract[2][1] of land lying between two confluent rivers. It is similar to an interfluve.[3] In the Oxford Hindi-English Dictionary, R. S. McGregor defines it as from Persian do-āb (دوآب, literally "two [bodies of] water") "a region lying between and reaching to the confluence of two rivers."
