How can we draw the greatest circle on the earth?

Answer

The Earth is spherical in shape, but it is not a perfect sphere. It is slightly flattened at the poles and bulges at the equator. To represent the Earth accurately, we use a globe, which is a miniature model of the Earth. The largest circle that can be drawn on a globe is the equator, which divides the Earth into the Northern Hemisphere and Southern Hemisphere.
