the Equatorial region or zone, it is part of the tropics which is the region between the tropic of capricorn in the south and the tropic of cancer in the north.

The Equatorial zone is the region between 5 degrees north and 5 degrees south.

There is generally 6 zones north to south on the Earth.

1. The arctic bound by the arctic circle, this is the line where, when the north pole is at it's furthest inclination from the sun (winter solstice), the sun does not shine north of here.

2. The northern temperate zone, from the arctic to the tropic.

3. The tropics described above, are the areas on the Earth that at one or two times during the year will directly face the sun.

4. The Equatorial zone described above.

5. The southern temperate zone.

6. And the Antarctic zone, dark during the summer solstice.
