Welcome to Hotel Earth
Hello! I see its your first time here to Earth. There are a few things you should know. Us humans regionalize the Earth in a few ways. One way we regionalize the Earth is by time zones. If its 6:00 in eastern time zone that means its 3:00 in the western time zone. Also we regionalize the Earth by continents. There are seven pieces of land called continents. Everybody in the world lives on a continent. The seven continents are North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, and Antarctica. Another way we regionalize the Earth is by climate zones. On the Earth there is this imaginary line called the equator. The closer to the equator the hotter it gets. But the farther you get from the equator the colder it is.
