Thirteen countries in the world lie on the earth's equator — located at 0 degrees latitude — though not all of these countries' landmasses necessarily touch the equator itself. 

Sao Tome and Principe, Gabon, Republic of the Congo, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Uganda, Kenya, Somalia, Maldives, Indonesia, Kiribati, Ecuador, Colombia and Brazil all lie along the equator, and though the landmasses of Maldives and Kiribati do not touch the equator itself, the equator passes through water controlled by these two territories.

In terms of climate, countries that lie along the equator experience much warmer temperatures year-round, with winter never really coming due to the equator's near-constant exposure to the same levels of sun exposure year-round.
