    In my Geography class I was taught that the Equatorial Countries are those within the parallels 10 N and S, because that’s the line where the effects of regular 4 seasons is null and where the trade winds converge to create the Intertropical Convergence Zone.

      Well I invest with a top trader Investor Ashton Edwards you might have heard of him.. I can correctly say he's the best top trader in the world, an investment advisor as his diversification skills are great, I say this because i see that in his results as my portfolio grows by averages of 25% to 35% on a weekly basis, unlike i can say for my IRA which has just been trudging along. my portfolio just mirrors what he place and not just on some particular industries of my choosing. He gave me that financial freedom I needed

    How about the countries that come closest to the north pole? We can't count the south pole as those slices of Antarctica are merely managed by various countries, not actually part of them. Still, people might be surprised to learn that the winner of that contest is Denmark.
    How about countries that are in both the eastern and western hemispheres, by land area? Russia and the USA would take the top two spots, while Great Britain would be comfortably in the middle, actually.
