There is no such meridian. Each and every one of the infinite number of meridians
of longitude lies half in the northern Hemisphere and half in the southern.
The 0 degree line of Latitude is called the Equator.
It is known as the Eastern Hemisphere, with lines of longitude easterly from the Prime Meridian (zero longitude) to the Datum Line of 180 degrees longitude. In the opposite direction from the Prime Meridian is the Western Hemisphere. To the north of the Equator is the Northern Hemisphere, and to the south of the Equator is the Southern Hemisphere.
Equator. The Equator is an imaginary line that divides the Earth into the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere. Any point located at 0 degrees latitude lies directly on this line.
Prime Meridian
The Prime Meridian is a line of longitude (running north and south). It runs near London. The Equator is a line of latitude (running east and west).

The 0 degree line of Latitude is called the Equator.
The Prime Meridian and the meridian of 180° longitude, together, do.
It is known as the Eastern Hemisphere, with lines of longitude easterly from the Prime Meridian (zero longitude) to the Datum Line of 180 degrees longitude. In the opposite direction from the Prime Meridian is the Western Hemisphere. To the north of the Equator is the Northern Hemisphere, and to the south of the Equator is the Southern Hemisphere.
Prime Meridian
New Zealand is in the Southern Hemisphere, as it is South of the Equator. It is also in the Eastern Hemisphere as it is to the East of the Prime Meridian. Longitude 170 East places it close to the International Date Line (180 degrees).
Prime Meridian
Equator. The Equator is an imaginary line that divides the Earth into the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere. Any point located at 0 degrees latitude lies directly on this line.
Southern Hemisphere
Australia is in the southern hemisphere; it is entirely south of the equator, a distinct line that goes around the middle of the earth, all points of it equidistant to both poles. There is no such thing as the eastern or western hemisphere because if you head west you will never get to the east or if you head east yo will never get to the west. However, there are arbitrarily defined geographical eastern and western hemispheres. The hemisphere of the earth east of the Prime Meridian (zero degrees longitude, formerly known as the Greenwich Meridian) and west of 180 degrees longitude (the defined location of the International Date Line) is often called the eastern hemisphere, and the hemisphere to the west of the Prime Meridian and east of 180 degrees longitude is called the western hemisphere. According to this definition Australia is in the eastern hemisphere. It is to the east of the Prime Meridian and to the west of the International Date Line.
The Prime Meridian is the line of longitude at 0 degrees located through Greenwich, England. It divides the globe into two hemispheres: East and West not North and South so for example Asia is in the Eastern Hemisphere and the Americas are on the Western Hemisphere. The Equator on the other hand is a line of latitude at zero degrees that divides the globe into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. England, France, and Spain are countries in the northern hemisphere that have the prime meridian passing through its border.
