The north and south polar regions are the same size. They are defined by the Arctic and Antarctic Circles respectively. The Antarctic Circle is at 66 degrees 32 minutes S latitude.

The Arctic Circle is at 66 degrees 32 minutes N latitude. The Antarctic and Arctic Circles are the points at sea level at which the sun does not appear over the horizon at the respective Winter Solstices.
