With each question crafted to test the limits of your geographic prowess, it's no wonder this quiz has earned the title of being "hard."

Now, I must warn you, dear readers, that this is not a journey for the faint of heart.

So, put on your thinking caps, sharpen your pencils (or flex those typing fingers), and prepare to be transported to the far corners of our magnificent planet. This quiz will push your geographical boundaries, test your mental mettle, and have you questioning whether North really is that way or if your compass has gone haywire.
So, are you ready to take on this hard geography quiz? If you think you're up to the task, let's embark on this epic adventure together.
