The American Bottom is the flood plain of the Mississippi River in the Metro-East region of Southern Illinois, extending from Alton, Illinois, south to the Kaskaskia River.
 It is also sometimes called "American Bottoms".
 The area is about 175 sqmi , mostly protected from flooding in the 21st century by a levee and drainage canal system.
 Immediately across the river from St. Louis, Missouri are industrial and urban areas, but many swamps and the major Horseshoe Lake are reminders of the Bottoms' riparian nature.
 This plain served as the center for the pre-Columbian Cahokia Mounds civilization, and later the French settlement of Illinois Country.
 Deforestation of the river banks in the 19th century to fuel steamboats had dramatic environmental effects in this region.
 The Mississippi River between St. Louis and the confluence with the Ohio River became wider and more shallow, as unstable banks collapsed into the water.
 This resulted in more severe flooding and lateral changes of the major channel, causing the destruction of several French colonial towns, such Kaskaskia, Cahokia, and St. Philippe, Illinois.

The Illinois Country (French: Pays des Illinois , lit.
 "land of the Illinois (plural)", i.e. the Illinois people) — sometimes referred to as Upper Louisiana (French: la Haute-Louisiane ; Spanish: Alta Luisiana ) — was a vast region of New France in what is now the Midwestern United States.
 While these names generally referred to the entire Upper Mississippi River watershed, French colonial settlement was concentrated along the Mississippi and Illinois Rivers in what is now the U.S. states of Illinois and Missouri, with outposts in Indiana.
 Explored in 1673 from Green Bay to the Arkansas River by the "Canadien" expedition of Louis Joliet and Jacques Marquette, the area was claimed by France.
 It was settled primarily from the "Pays d'en Haut" in the context of the fur trade.
 Overtime, the fur trade took some French to the far reaches of the Rocky Mountains, especially along the branches of the broad Missouri River valley.
 The French name, "Pays des Illinois", means "Land of the Illinois [plural]" and is a reference to the Illinois Confederation, a group of related Algonquian native peoples.
The River Bend is a small region in western central Illinois and Southern Illinois that comprises parts of three counties: Madison, Calhoun, and Jersey.
 The name comes from a section of Mississippi River that flows roughly west to east instead of the usual north to south, causing a bend in the river.
 In this area, two other major rivers, the Missouri and the Illinois join the Mississippi River.
 This section of the Mississippi River is known as the Alton Lake
