"Land of plenty" nghĩa là gì?


"Land of plenty" = vùng đất dồi dào -> nghĩa là vùng đất hư cấu, tưởng tượng, nơi có mọi thứ cần thiết để tồn tại và phát triển.

Ví dụ 
The skulls of two baboons, mummified more than 3,000 years ago, have helped narrow down the location of a fabled (hư cấu, bịa đặt) "land of plenty", which once supplied ancient Egypt with gold, frankincense, myrrh and monkeys.

Yesterday at the grocery checkout counter in my local store, the clerk asked me if I would like to donate to a hunger fund. This led me to ponder how our land of plenty could be in such dire straits regarding such basics as feeding its citizens.  

The World on Monday stated that never before did the hotels and restaurants of Vancouver lay themselves out for such an excellent spread for their guests as they did (Christmas Day). To show people abroad that Vancouver is neither in a desert or a wilderness, but in a land of plenty, we publish a few of the bills of fare.
