Lines of longitude are not called parallels because?
Because all longitudes converge (merge, meet, come together) at the north and south poles. Since parallel things can't do that, we know that lines of longitude must not be parallel, and since they are not parallel, it would be very misleading to call them parallels. The whole subject is confusing enough as it is.
Another name for line of latitude?
