Geographic coordinates help us find places on Earth. They use two main parts: latitude and longitude.

• Latitude tells us how far north or south we are from the Equator. It goes from $0^\circ$ at the Equator all the way up to $90^\circ$. For example, Stockholm is about $59.3^\circ N$, which means it's north of the Equator.

• Longitude tells us how far east or west we are from the Prime Meridian. This also ranges from $0^\circ$ to $180^\circ$. For Stockholm, it’s about $18.1^\circ E$.

These coordinates make it easier for young people who love geography to read maps, find their way around, and study different land features!
