The Tasman Sea is the body of water that stretches between New Zealand and Australia.
The sahara 'stretches' across the northern third of Africa.
When you pull on something, it stretches a bit. Even materials you think are rigid, stretch if enough force is applied. The numbers are very important since they say a lot about the characteristics of materials. Of course all this depends on the thickness of the thing that stretches, so engineers use units that include the cross-sectional area. Strain (Think INch) is the deflection or distance the material stretches. Stress (Think pRESSure) is the force/cross-section, perhaps PSI.
Polder refers to a low-lying stretch of land surrounded by embankments known as dikes
