Is North America north or south of the equator?

Asked by nancy1985

Answer (2)

North America is one of only two continents that are totally and completely north of the equator. (Europe is the other one.)

North America is entirely north of the equator, placing it in the Northern Hemisphere. This geographical location means that all countries and regions within North America, such as the United States and Canada, also lie north of this imaginary line. Knowing this is fundamental for studying global geography.
