The International Date Line (IDL) roughly follows the 180° longitude which is called the 180th meridian or antimeridian. The line deviates to pass around some territories and island groups (Fiji, Tonga, Samoa, etc). The Date Line deviates from the straight line of longitude to keep it from passing through countries such as the USA (Alaska), Russia (Wrangel Island and Chukchi Peninsula), or New Zealand, and island nations such as the Marshall Islands and the Aleutian Islands.
