The line that is vertical, or up and down.
The meridian of 82° west longitude crosses the territory of -- Canada -- the USA -- Cuba -- the Cayman Islands -- Panama -- (Antarctica -- not a country)
When lines of longitude and latitude intersect, they form a grid system that allows for the precise location of any point on Earth. This system helps in navigation and mapping, with latitude lines running east-west and longitude lines running north-south. The intersection of these lines creates coordinates that can pinpoint any location on the globe.
the longitide line that has the measurement 0degrees is called equator

The International Date Line follows the meridian of 180° longitude, roughly down the middle of the Pacific Ocean. To avoid crossing nations internally the line deviates around the far east of Russia and then around various island groups in the Pacific. These various deviations (east or west) generally accommodate the political and/or geo-economic affiliations of the affected islands.
