4 Basic (Cardinal) Points of a Compass
The cardinal points of the compass are North, East, South and West. Another name for them is the cardinal directions.
The number of points will depend upon the type of compass rose you have. The most simplistic compass rose has four points, while the most common is the eight-pointed compass rose. However, there are some with 16- and 32-points.
