Are we the latest to turn a new day?

Other countries are hours ahead, but not days. The rotation of the earth has an effect on how many time zones we have. The earth rotates every 24 hours which is why we have 24 hours in a day. We also have 24 time zones, each time zone stands for one hour.
Each day starts at the International Date Line
