The opposite longitude from the Prime Meridian (Greenwich Meridian) is the line of 180° longitude, which is both 180° east and 180° west.
This would ideally be the International Date Line. But the date line has been repositioned east or west for convenience. Countries either want a consistent date (e.g. Alaska and the Aleautians) or want to have an earlier or later date than their geographical position would dictate (e.g. Kiribati).
