All the directions on a compass make up the Compass Rose.Cardinal Directions are North, South, East and West. Cardinal in this sense means main or major.
The directions halfway between these Cardinal directions are Northeast, Southeast, Southwest and Northwest. These are called Primary InterCardinal directions. Between the Cardinal and Primary InterCardinal directions are the Secondary InterCardinal directions, such as North-Northeast.
