Tbh I think geography that isn't basic is kinda useless for almost everyone. Why do you need to know the exact location of things off the top of your head? Like I can normally point to the general vicinity of a country/state and I don't see why you'd need anything else, especially with how easy it is to google it now.
I was really good in US history but I remember I got a C on the naming/placing states and their capitols test. My teacher was real disappointed.
Eventually I'll release something. I'm very critical of my own work so everything always takes longer than I think it will (I will write mearly half an album and then just scrap it, forget it, and start over). I think for now I'll just start with a 'demo album' of sorts released online.
Geography is one of my favourite subjects (when I was little I used to study maps for fun. I still do. I think it is very important. Knowing every city/country/cultural area/etc. in the world isn't the most important thing but understanding the basics is important. It's less about remembering trivial facts and more about understanding how regions are connected.
