How to remove the parent directory of a subdirectory from the URL (.htaccess)

I have been trying every possible way of removing the subdirectory's parent directory from the URL.

Let's assume that this is my url: https://example.com/accounts/login. I need the url to look like this: https://example.com/login, so without the accounts directory.

And usually when I try to go to https://example.com/login I get "The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request." (aka Error 500 - internal server error).

My current .htaccess:

RewriteEngine On 
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80 
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://example.com/$1 [R,L]

RewriteEngine on 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html [NC,L]
RewriteEngine on 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php [NC,L]

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d 
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ html/$1

<IfModule mod_expires.c>
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresByType image/jpg "access 1 year"
ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access 1 year"
ExpiresByType image/gif "access 1 year"
ExpiresByType image/png "access 1 year"
ExpiresByType text/css "access 1 month"
ExpiresByType text/html "access 1 month"
ExpiresByType application/pdf "access 1 month"
ExpiresByType text/x-javascript "access 1 month"
ExpiresByType application/x-shockwave-flash "access 1 month"
ExpiresByType image/x-icon "access 1 year"
ExpiresDefault "access 1 month"
</IfModule>

Replace all of your rewrite rules with this block:

RewriteEngine On 

RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80 
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,NE,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
RewriteRule ^ - [L]

RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/html/$1.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ html/$1.php [L]

RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/html/$1.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ html/$1.html [L]

RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/accounts/$1.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ accounts/$1.php [L]

RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/accounts/$1.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ accounts/$1.html [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ $1.html [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ $1.php [L]
