Yes, the Northern Hemisphere and the Eastern Hemisphere are examples of regions based on geographic divisions. The Northern Hemisphere is divided by the equator, while the Eastern Hemisphere is typically divided by the Prime Meridian. These regions are defined by their unique hemispheric characteristics and have distinct geographic, climatic, and cultural features.
Tundra and taiga are found only in the northern hemisphere because of the Earth's distribution of land and the polar climate conditions found in this region. The unique combination of low temperatures, short growing seasons, and dry conditions in the northern hemisphere create the necessary environment for tundra and taiga ecosystems to thrive.
Polaris is situated almost along the axis of the earth's rotation, above the North Pole. As a result, to viewers in the Northern hemisphere, it appears to be stationary above the pole and so acts as a direction finder.
There is no constellation like it in the Southern Hemisphere... but the Southern Cross points to where a South Star would be located, if one were visible.
The continent of Africa is a unique one. It's the only continent that has some of its territory in the eastern, western, northern, and southern hemispheres.
Ecuador is located in the North and South Hemisphere.
At over 4,000 miles long it is the longest river in the world. The northern section of the river flows almost entirely through desert to the sea and it diminishes because of evaporation.
South-facing mountains in the Northern Hemisphere receive more direct sunlight, leading to warmer temperatures compared to the north-facing slopes. This exposure to sunlight creates a microclimate that is typically drier and sunnier, allowing for different vegetation to thrive and supporting unique ecosystems.
There are many countries with many cities in the Southern Hemisphere.Australia: Canberra.New Zealand: Auckland.
Africa is the only continent that is situated in all four hemispheres—the Northern Hemisphere, Southern Hemisphere, Eastern Hemisphere, and Western Hemisphere. This unique geographical positioning sets Africa apart from the other continents.

The seasons are reversed. When it is spring or summer in the northern hemisphere, it is the autumn (fall) or the winter in Australia. This is caused by the northern part of the world being tipped the opposite way (towards or away) from the sun to Australia. The seasons in Australia and other countries in the Southern Hemisphere are reversed from those in the Northern Hemisphere. When it is summer in the Southern Hemisphere, it is winter in the Northern Hemisphere, and so forth. For example, the Australian summer starts in December, while winter begins in July.
