I would say Australia because they are closer to the equator however they may not get more sunshine but it would be stronger.

The Sun, in its seasonal movement through the sky, passes directly over the equator twice each year on the Vernal and Autumnal Equinoxes, which occur in March and September (respectively). At the equator, the rays of the sun are perpendicular to the surface of the earth on these dates.\n\nPlaces near the equator experience the quickest rates of sunrise and sunset in the world, taking minutes. Such places also have a relatively constant amount of day/night time on every day throughout the year compared with more northerly or southerly places.

If your in the south pole, everything is going to be north of you so the equator is north of the south pole.

About 1,000 miles per hour at the equator. Slower if you are closer to the poles. I think it is about 800 miles per hour at latitudes typical in the U.S.

How did you determine that Jerusalem is "the center of the earth?" It is far enough from the equator that this is not remotely accurate.

I believe that would be Davao City in the Phillipines.  With a total land area of 244,000 hectares, Davao is considered the largest city in the world. \n\nI hope this helps.

Assuming you meant just north of the equator as the belly button lies just above the wasit, and you mean at 0deg longitude as its at the front and in the middle of the body it would be the town of Tema which is found in Ghana.  The nearest big city though is Accra also in Ghana.\n\nBoth very beautiful cities...you should all go there someday....If you do also spend some time on the Gold Coast in Winneba and Saltpond.  You'll then understand why we have all been put on this earth.
