Antarctica is in both the eastern AND western hemispheres, and in the southern, of course.Another AnswerAs to 'why', the answer is simply that the lines drawn by humans over the earth separating hemispheres happen to bisect this continent.
You can't have four hemispheres on one sphere unless they overlap. The usual divisions are into the Northern and Southern hemispheres (divided, sensibly enough, by the equator) or the Eastern and Western hemispheres (divided by the great circle which contains the Prime Meridian).
The eastern hemisphere lies east of the Prime Meridian; the western hemisphere lies west of the Prime Meridian.western and eastern hemispheres
Northern and Eastern hemispheres
The Equator devides the earth in to North and South hemispheres
Antarctica is the continent found completely in the southern hemisphere and split between the eastern and western hemispheres.
Australia. It is the only continent entirely within the Southern and Eastern hemispheres.
The Prime Meridian is 1/2 of the boundary between the eastern and western hemispheres.
Asia, Europe, and Africa are all present in the Northern and Eastern Hemispheres.
In the eastern AND western hemispheres - that is both halves of the Earth, ALL the continents are found.
Earth is divided into the Northern and Southern hemispheres by the equator, and the Eastern and Western hemispheres by the Prime Meridian.
Africa, both the equator and prime meridian go through Africa- so Northern and Southern Hemispheres and Western and Eastern Hemispheres converge in the continent of Africa.
