La Mancha is an arid, but fertile, elevated plateau (610m [2000ft]) of central
Spain, north of
Madrid, stretching between the Montes (mountains) de Toledo and the western spurs of the Cerros (hills) de Cuenca, and bounded on the south by the Sierra Morena and on the north by the La Alcarria region. It includes portions of the modern provinces of
Cuenca,
Toledo, and
Albacete, and most of the
Ciudad Real province. It constitutes the southern portion of the
Castile-La Mancha autonomous community and makes up most of the region.
