Think of the world as a top. If you were standing on the very top of that top, you would be spinning, but you wouldn't be moving. This is what happens if you go close to the north or south poles. You're still spinning, but because you aren't moving very much, you're facing the same direction most of the time. The reason for the "6 months of dark and 6 months of light" is the same reason we have seasons. For 6 months the pole will be facing the sun, and for the next it will be facing away. Of course, between those two times will be periods where you aren't facing directly towards or away from the sun. And because the north and south poles are on the opposite ends of the Earth, one will be summer while the other is winter.
East to west. The north to south lines intersect at the poles.
The plane, which passes through the equator of the earth, perpendicular to its axis of rotation, and equidistant from its poles -- is known as Euuatorial plane

Yes. Because if two poles are the same it wont attract Always positive and negative connect they have to be different.
No. This only occurs at the poles. Northern Norway (Svalbard) has 5 months of continuous daylight from mid-April to September and 5 months continuous night from late October to March.
The earth tilts as it wobbles its way through the universe, tilting the poles toward and away from the sun.
because the earth is tilted towards the poles,so in summers the north pole will have continuous daylight for 6 months and south pole will have night for 6 months.Then in winters it will be reversed i.e. north pole will have night for the other 6 months and south pole will have continuous day light for 6 months. this proves that the poles experience day for 6 months and other 6 months they experience night.
NO COUNTRY has six-month day and six-month night. That only happens at the north and south poles, and the poles are not part of any country.
Norway, Sweden, and Finland experience 6 months of continuous daylight known as the Midnight Sun in summer in the northern parts of the countries, while 6 months of continuous darkness occurs in winter, known as the Polar Night.
This phenomenon, known as polar day and polar night, occurs in polar regions near the North and South Poles. These regions experience 6 months of continuous daylight during the polar day and 6 months of constant darkness during the polar night.
Poles experience about six months of day and six months of night due to the tilt of Earth's axis. When a pole is tilted towards the Sun, it experiences continuous daylight as the Sun remains above the horizon for an extended period. Likewise, when the pole is tilted away from the Sun, it results in continuous darkness for an extended period.
At the poles, such as the North and South Poles, there are regions where the sun remains above the horizon for about six months during summer, resulting in continuous daylight, followed by six months of darkness during winter. This phenomenon is known as polar day and polar night.
This phenomenon occurs in no country on Earth. At the poles, however, the sun rises and sets once each year. There are no countries at the poles.
The North and South Poles do not experience day and night for part of the year due to the phenomenon of the polar day and polar night resulting from the tilt of the Earth's axis. In these regions, the sun remains above the horizon for several months, resulting in continuous daylight in summer and continuous darkness in winter.
Regions near the poles, such as the North and South Poles, experience six months of continuous daylight during their respective summer seasons and six months of continuous darkness during their winters due to the Earth's axial tilt and orbit around the sun. This phenomenon is known as the midnight sun in summer and polar night in winter.
Countries located within the Arctic and Antarctic Circles, such as Norway, Sweden, Finland, and parts of Alaska, experience periods of constant daylight and constant darkness, known as the midnight sun and polar night, due to the tilt of the Earth's axis.
