Every point on Earth has longitude and latitude.
Once you name a longitude and latitude, you've nailed down a single point on the Earth's surface, and no other point anywhere on Earth can have the same longitude and latitude.
Every point on the surface of the earth has latitude and longitude. If the latitude and longitude of a point are given and they're sufficiently accurate, the point can be found within less than an inch, anywhere on earth.
A set of latitude/longitude numbers defines a single point. No two places can havethe same latitude and longitude, and in order for the pair of numbers to be evensimilar at both places, the places must be close together.-- The states of Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, North Dakota,South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, New York, Vermont, and Maine allhave territory at the same latitude as places in Romania.-- No place anywhere in the US has a longitude at all similar to the longitude ofany place in Romania.
