The word derives from Greek

Ge - meaning "The Earth"
Graphy - Writing

So in the direct sense, the word means writing about the earth, but today we use it in a much broader sense. As for your question, when we've now figured that Geography means writing about the Earth, I would suggest that you go with option B: to describe Earth
