Hi
A great circle is the largest possible circle that can be drawn around a sphere. All spheres have great circles. If you cut a sphere at one of its great circles, you'd cut it exactly in half. A great circle has the samecircumference, or outer boundary, and the same center point as its sphere.

The biggest circle of the globe is an equator.
As the equator passes through the centre of the earth it is considered as the largest circle of the earth.
If the imaginary line of the equator cuts the earth then it gets divided into exact half.
Hence, it is called the biggest circle of the globe.
The Equator is also known as 0^ Lattitude.
