No. When the "Prime Meridian" was formally established in 1884, most navigators and astronomers had been using the longitude of the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, England as the zero point for calculations for 90 years.

What poles do the Prime Meridian pass through?

The Prime Meridian touches both the north and south poles, but if you reallywant to be correct about it, it doesn't 'pass through' either of them.The poles are the ends of the Prime Meridian. So when it reaches each pole,it stops there, and doesn't 'pass through'.
