The Eastern Empire managed to divert the Visigoths into Italy, thus shoving the problem onto the Western Empire, which responded to this threat by pulling troops from the Rhine frontier. This triggered a pattern of events much like the cycle of anarchy in the third century C.E., only this time, no Aurelian or Diocletian emerged to save the Empire.
Because latitude runs from the equator to one or the other of the poles, 90 degrees. That's one-fourth of a full circle around the globe. Longitude starts at Greenwich, Englanâ¦d and runs, to the west or to the east, to the International Date Line (in the Pacific Ocean), 180 degrees.
Latitude, usually denoted symbolically by the Greek letter phi, \(\phi\,\!\), gives the location of a place on Earth north or south of the Equator. Latitude is an angular measurement in degrees (marked with Â°) ranging from 0Â° at the Equator to 90Â° at the poles (90Â° N for the North Pole or 90Â° S for the South Pole). The complementary angle of a latitude is called the colatitude.
