    The study of the intersection of two Baer subgeometries of \(PG(n, q), q\) a square, started in [\textit{R. C. Bose, J. W. Freeman} and \textit{D. G. Glynn}, Util. Math. 17, 65--77 (1980; Zbl 0445.51005); \textit{A. A. Bruen}, Arch. Math. 39, 285--288 (1982; Zbl 0477.51008)]. Later, in [\textit{M. Svéd}, Lect. Notes Math. 1036, 375--391 (1983; Zbl 0527.51021)] and [\textit{I. Jagos} et al., Acta Sci. Math. 69, No.~1--2, 419--429 (2003; Zbl 1049.51002)], the structure of the intersection of two Baer subgeometries of \(PG(n, q)\) has been completely determined. In this paper, generalizing the previous results, the authors determine all possible intersection configurations of any two subgeometries of \(PG(n, q)\).
