The equator is an imaginary line running around the widest part of the Earth, halfway between the North Pole and the South Pole. North of the Equator, you're in the Northern Hemisphere. South of the Equator, you're in the Southern Hemisphere. North America, Europe, Africa and Asia are mostly in the Northern Hemisphere.
The Equator is the longest circle of latitude or parallel on the Earth's surface. The latitude of each point on the Equator equals 0Â°. The Equator divides the Earth's surface into the Northern and the Southern Hemispheres. The points that lie north of the Equator belong to the Northern Hemisphere.
