Western Hemisphere
The Western Hemisphere, also Western hemisphere or western hemisphere, is a
geographical term for the half of the
Earth that lies
west of the
Prime Meridian (which crosses
Greenwich in
London,
England,
United Kingdom), the other half being the
eastern hemisphere. It is also used to specifically refer to the
Americas (or the
New World) and adjacent waters, while excluding other territories that lie geographically in the hemisphere (parts of
Africa,
Europe,
Antarctica, and
Asia); thus, it is sometimes referred to as the American hemisphere. Western hemisphere is sometimes used as an equivalent for the
geopolitical construct, the
Western World, which typically includes the Americas and
Europe.
