Why do planets have day and night?

As the Earth rotates on its axis it causes the Earth to spin. so the side which faces the sun is day as it is closest to the sun. the side that is further away from the sun is in night as it has no sun and it is dark. while the earth is spinning on its axis the side faceing the sun has day and the side faceing away has night however there is a country which has 6 month day and 6month night and that country is Norway because Norway is in a particular spot in the world which could have 6 month day and 6 month night.
