There is no official set of "lines". Some globes and maps have more lines, spaced closer
together. Some globes and maps have fewer lines, spaced farther apart. Some globes
and maps have no lines at all. We have no way of knowing how many latitudes are
marked on the globe or map that you're looking at today, and the next one you see
may be marked at a different interval.
