Best Answer

The 0 degree longitude is the imaginary line that goes from pole to pole, passing through Greenwich in London, site of the Royal Observatory. The choice of the zero point for longitudes is arbitrary and many major cities were used. Eventually, in 1884, the Greenwich Meridian was accepted as the internationally agreed zero longitude.
