Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The prime meridian passes through Greenwich, England, and is the line of longitude at which the longitude is defined to be 0 degrees. It is not a latitude line, nor was it established by the Greeks. While it may be a tourist destination in England, this is not relevant to its significance in geography.
