Search the 12th curved line eastwards (from degrees [straight lines] 0 to > 30 > 60 > 90 > 120 > 150 > 180).

The Earth is divided equally into 360 degrees of longitude. There are 180 degrees of longitude to the East of the Prime Meridian. The Prime Meridian of the World (0° longitude) is Greenwich, one of 33 London boroughs, situated within Thames Gateway; and its opposite is at 180° longitude (both eastwards and westwards as well). At the extreme Eastern point you can find the Russian towns Keon and Anadyr, in Arctic Pole - near 64º / 68º N, latitude - and the islands Tavauni and Lomaloma, in Fiji, Oceania - about 16º / 18º S, latitude.
