Every point on earth has both a latitude and a longitude. The first number tells
how far that point is north or south of the equator. The second number tells
how far the point is east or west of a certain line that has been defined as zero.
The center of Stockholm is located at roughly
59.33 degrees north latitude
18.08 degrees east longitude.
Malmö is located at roughly
55.60 degrees north latitude
13.02 degrees east longitude.
The point up north where the boundaries of Sweden, Norway, and Finland all meet
is located at roughly:
69.06 degrees north latitude
20.56 degrees east longitude.
Every point on earth has its own unique set of latitude and longitude numbers. Several
places can have the same latitude, and several places can have the same longitude.
But no two different points can have the same set of both numbers.
