They would repel each other
If you put the north and south poles of two magnets together, they would attract each other and stick together. Conversely, if you put two like poles (north-north or south-south) together, they would repel each other and push away.
It is not possible to create a magnet with two south poles or two north poles. Both the poles always exist along with each other. Force 2 magnets together end to end with the south poles together. You will get a north pole at each end and a big south pole in the middle. This arrangement is called a quadrupole.
If you put two south pole magnets together, they would repel each other (the force would push the two magnets away from each other). Only north pole and south pole attract each other. Short answer- you would have a hard time getting the two south poles to touch! Hope this helped! =D
No, breaking a magnet in two does not isolate the north and south poles. Each resulting piece would still have its own north and south poles. A magnet will always have both north and south poles regardless of its size or shape.
When two magnets are brought together, the opposite poles will attract one another, but the like poles will repel one another. This is similar to electric charges. Like charges repel, and unlike charges attract.

I thought they were.
If two south poles are put together, they would repel each other. This is because like poles (north-north or south-south) repel each other due to the magnetic field lines being oriented in the same direction.
Compasses would point south instead of north.

Most living things would fry from the cosmic radiation from the Sun.

Then people would be worshiping poles, poles, wouldn't they?
if you bring north and north they would repel. if you bring south and south they repel. If you bring north and south they will attract
Two north poles will repel each other due to their like magnetic charges. To "magnetize" them together, you would need to flip one of them around so that it becomes a south pole. This will create attraction between the two poles and they will come together due to the magnetic force.
The North and South Poles would be located at the same positions as they are currently, with the North Pole at the top of the Earth and the South Pole at the bottom. Antarctica's position would not affect the locations of the poles.
