This user earned the Reverse regional achievement
by reaching hash points in all regions of the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) graticule.

Use this template to put a ribbon like this on your own page.

This is the opposite of the Regional Geohash Achievement: Instead of visiting hashpoints in every graticule in a given region, the goal is to visit hashpoints in every region in a given graticule. For example, the Boston, Massachusetts graticule (42 -71) spans 4 US states, so to gain this achievement it would be necessary to visit hashpoints in that graticule falling in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Connecticut and Rhode Island.

You are free to increase the difficulty of the reverse regional achievement by aiming for smaller administrative divisions, e.g., in a graticule spanning two countries, you can go for hashpoints in both countries to get the most basic reverse regional achievement possible, but you could also try to reach coordinates in all respective subdivisions of both countries (states/provinces, then counties to make it even more difficult, etc.).

You may claim an honorable mention for graticules in which you have reached almost all regions, and the combined area of the remaining regions covers less than 0.1% of the graticule.

The graticule should span at least two regions, else it's just too easy. For the honorable mention you have to reach at least two regions.

Alternate meetup locations do not count for this achievement.
