Any half of a planet with a great circle as a boundary can be called a hemisphere. Most often the equator is used as a boundary dividing the planet into a northern hemisphere and a southern hemisphere. The Earth has an accepted "prime meridian" (which runs through Greenwich England) and the continuation of that meridian divides the Earth into an eastern and a Western Hemisphere.
