All points on earth that are the same distance from the equator lie at the same north or south latitude. Latitudes range from 90 degrees north to 90 degrees south.

Cities such as Kraków (Poland), Kyiv (Ukraine), Lizard Point (southern England) or Ulan-Gom (Mongolia) as well as the town of Portage la Prairie in the Canadian province of Manitoba, which is close to Winnipeg, are located on the 50th degree of latitude.
