Not sure what you're trying to do with subelements.
You could do this:
---
- name: Print world details
hosts: localhost
gather_facts: no
vars:
world:
asia:
country: india
state: maha
city: mumbai
n_america:
nation: canada
province: quebec
city: montreal
tasks:
- name: Printing details of montreal
ansible.builtin.debug:
msg: "{{ item.value.city | default(item.key ~ ' has no city') }}"
loop: "{{ world | dict2items }}"
when: item.key == 'n_america'
