Hemispheres of Asia, Australia, and Europe

Key Points

  • Equator crosses Asia (Indonesia) but mainland Asia is Northern.
  • Prime Meridian (0°) cuts Europe (UK, France, Spain, Algeria) — so Europe straddles Eastern/Western, but >90% is Eastern.
  • Australia is wholly in Southern & Eastern hemispheres.
