world's end
Civilization's ultimate collapse
World's end is the farthest imaginable point, the edge of the known or knowable: They searched to the world's end and back.
The phrase evokes both geographic and apocalyptic finality—either the remotest place on earth or the moment of cosmic destruction.
It appears in place names for dramatic coastal cliffs and isolated promontories.
