The International Date Line (IDL) is an imaginary line located roughly along the 180th meridian in the Pacific Ocean that serves as the boundary for calendar days. When crossing the IDL from west to east, travelers subtract a day, while crossing from east to west adds a day. This system helps maintain a consistent timekeeping structure globally, ensuring that local times align with the position of the sun. The line is not straight; it zigzags around political and geographical boundaries to accommodate various countries and territories.
