Longitude is measured both east and west. If you don't specify that, then we really

don't know which way you're talking about.

The meridian of 20° east longitude passes through Svalbard, Norway, Sweden,

Finland, Russia, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Serbia and Montenegro, Albania, Greece,

Libya, Chad, Central African Republic, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Angola,

Namibia, Botswana, South Africa, and Antarctica (not a country),

whereas the meridian of 20° west longitude passes through Greenland, Iceland,

and Antarctica (not a country).

As you can see, it really does make a difference.
