Geographic Markers
There are places where geographic lines or points are marked. While
modern geo-location shows some of thes to be inaccurate, they do have historical significance. For example: You can stand on the Prime Meridian at Greenwich England You can stand on the Equator at Midad del Mundo near Quito, Equador You can stand on the International Date Line in Fiji. Do you know where you can stand on the: Arctic Circle Tropic of Capricorn Tropic of Cancer Antarctic Circle? Or do you kno any other geographic markers like: Four Corners (Colorado/Arizona/New Mexico/Utah) Mason-Dixon Line (PA/MD)?
