Explanation

You can assign a NIC only to a virtual network in the same subscription and location as the NIC. When you create an Azure network interface, it must be in the same region as the virtual network to which it will be connected. Specifically, any resource, including a network interface, connected to a virtual network must reside within the same region as the virtual network. This ensures that the interface can be properly configured and associated with the virtual network's address space To create a network interface (NIC) in Azure, you need an Azure account with an active subscription and an existing virtual network. Public IP Address (Optional): You can associate a public IP address with the NIC. Route tables are optional. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-network/virtual-network-network-interface
