Since the earth is a rotating globe, you can think of noontime (and midnight) as continuously appearing, infinitely many times, as the sun appears to reach its highest elevation from point to point around the world. The only people experiencing the same clock time as you would be anyone on your exact line of longitude. That's the way it was for a long time, until it became clear that a more unified approach to setting clocks made much more sense. Imagine the craziness of scheduling things like train travel (and avoiding horrible accidents at the same time) when virtually all time was locally defined. With time zones (there are 24 of them in the original concept, each 15 degrees longitude wide) it is clear what time it is anywhere in the world, provided you know the time zone and you also know whatever daylight savings rules are in effect there. There are also places that have changed the boundaries of time zones usually for good practical reasons, and there are some zones that are off-set from adjacent zones by times other than one hour. Yes, there are still complications, but it is far better than every community having its own local time.
The unit used to count or measure quantities on the number of time zones axis is simply "number of time zones." This unit represents the count of distinct time zones around the world.
Texas has 2 Time Zones: Mountain Time Texas: Daylight Saving Time: This time is 6 time zones to England Standard Time: This time is 7 time zones to England Central Time Texas: Daylight Saving Time: 5 Time Zones Standard Time: 6 Time Zones
Indiana has two time zones: Eastern Time Zone and Central Time Zone. The dividing line between the two time zones runs approximately along the western border of Indiana.
Time zones do not have capitals. Time zones are regions where a common established time is used.
All time zones make their way through the 'topics': there is no 'tropical time zone'. Antarctica has no time zones. Research stations set their clock so as to coordinate with their support countries' time zones. There is no standard.
