Maps of the world or large areas are often either 'political' or 'physical'. The most important purpose of the political map is to show territorial borders; the purpose of the physical is to show features of geography such as mountains, soil type or land use. Geological maps show not only the physical surface, but characteristics of the underlying rock, fault lines, and subsurface structures.\n\nMaps that depict the surface of the Earth also use a projection, a way of translating the three-dimensional real surface of the geoid to a two-dimensional picture. Perhaps the best-known world-map projection is the Mercator Projection, originally designed as a form of nautical chart.\n\nAirplane pilots use aeronautical charts based on a Lambert conformal conic projection, in which a cone is laid over the section of the earth to be mapped. The cone intersects the sphere (the earth) at one or two parallels which are chosen as standard lines. This allows the pilots to plot a great-circle route approximation on a flat, two-dimensional chart.

Countries on the southern hemisphere. Think about the tilting earth as it orbits. Australia would be a good example.

A very good atlas, such as National Geographic's Atlas of the World.  Your library should have a good selection of atlases in the reference section.  Need it tonight?  Try here:\n\nwww.nationalgeographic.com/maps\n\nCheck out the entire website, though - not just the maps.

Try\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_Hemisphere\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_Hemisphere\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northern_Hemisphere\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_Hemisphere\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Americas\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asia\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europe\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Africa\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australasia\n\nActually, you can only divide the world into two hemispheres, usually either Northern and Soouthern, or Eastern and Western, so I can't give you detailed info on which country is situated in which hemisphere, but the links I gave you states the name of countries at each continent. Hope it helped!

your not that smart. north is not the sky, and south is not the ground. look the direction the sun rises, thats east. now turn your self 90 degrees to the left, thats north, turn another 90 degrees to the left, thats west, and where the sun sets. turn another 90 degrees left, thats south.     and most maps have a compass rose on them, it shows which way is north.\n\nyou were obvisouly NOT a boy scout

There is no west line.  East and west are relative terms.  North and south are obsolute terms, because they relate to absolute locations (the North and South poles, respectively).  East and west don't work like that.  They are like right and left--you could turn right infinitely and never reach a maximum state of rightness.
