List of physiographic regions

The landforms of Earth are generally divided into physiographic regions, consisting of physiographic provinces, which in turn consist of physiographic sections,^[1][2][3] though some others use different terminology, such as realms, regions and subregions.^[4] Some areas have further categorized their respective areas into more detailed subsections.^[5][6]
