How do we know that north america is in the north and south america is in the south? you could say to use a compass but those are just made up term. maybe north america is really in the south. is this just europeans assuming they are on top and making all of their maps like that. even if you go to the moon and look at the earth if you see north america "upside down" and in the south, you would just assume that you are on the south pole of the moon. maybe the earth is really upside down, or maybe it spins sideways. how can we figure this out?

OK well, geographic north is actually the magnetic south, while the geographic south is actually the magnetic north. The North Pole (located on top) is actually magnetically south. These are just man-made terms standardised so everyone knows what everyone else is talking about.

What abt the middle dude? besides the regulations may be distinctive if there replace right into a hollow, even gravitational rules as that's in accordance with shell theorum and the hollow might wish the formation of a sparkling formulation or theorum for graviatation on earth, additionally the warmth on the centre does no longer exist (might it?) i do no longer understand, if it might then we would die close to the midsection through temp enhance and additionally might there be any environment there? i do no longer think of so cuz that would additionally replace plenty circumstances on earth. and maximum severely, if there have been holes in north and south pole, then the magnetic field which saves the earth from radiation from the sunlight does no longer be finished and for that reason we would stop to exist. so i do no longer understand

If you look at it logically NORTH on a compass is actually SOUTH due to opposite poles attracting.

MY FRIEND;
GET ORGANIZED.
FIRST OF ALL THERE IS RULES AND PRINCIPLES BEHIND EVERY LITTLE THING.
NEWTON LAW F=MA IS A LAW . THIS LAW HAS RULES.
IF WE DO NOT FOLLOW THE LAWS OF NATURE WE END UP IN A PIT.
TELL ME , CAN YOU JUMP FROM A SKY CRAPPER WITH NO TOOLS , YOU WILL KILL YOURSELF. THAT IS THE LAW OF GRAVITY FOR YOU.
PLANES DO USE THE FORCES OF AERODYNAMICS TO LIFT THEM OFF. AERODYNAMICS LAWS ARE WELL KNOWN AND CAN BE USED SUCCESSFULLY.
NOW. THE GALAXY IS DIVIDED FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF EARTH INTO 2 SECTIONS:
1. THE UPPER HEMISPHEREE
2. THE LOWER HEMISPHER.
NOW FROM THAT RULE WE SAY THAT IN THE UPPER HEMISPHERE RESIDES NORTH....
IN THE LOWER HEMISPHERE RESIDES SOUTH.
HAPPY WITH THE ANSWER, I WISH YOU A GREAT FUTURE, BECAUSE YOU DARE ASK THE RIGHT INSIGHTFUL QUESTIONS, MEANING THAT YOU ARE INTELLIGENT.
REGARDS

Just look for the Northern Star, Aurora Borealis, or The Big Dipper.

They're manmade definitions. There's no innate 'northness'. We observed something and named it. That's all
