How are the meridians of longitude drawn on the globe?
Each line of longitude extends from one pole to the other, perpendicular to the equator. Along each meridian, the equator is 0° latitude, the north pole is 90° north latitude, and the south pole is 90° south latitude. The prime meridian, which is the meridian that passes through Greenwich, England, is 0° longitude, and the international date line, directly opposite the prime meridian, is 180° east or west longitude.
