The Equator is another of the Earth'sgreat circles. If you were to cut into the Earth right on its Equator, you'd have two equal halves: the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. The Equator is the only east-west line that is a great circle. All other parallels (lines of latitude) get smaller as you get near the poles.

Explanation:
This is so because it is the largest latitude which is equal to the radius of the earth, the latitudes gets smaller as we go near the poles. The Great Circle divides the earth into two hemisphere: The Northern Hemisphere and The Southern Hemisphere.
