North

North is one of the four main directions used to navigate, often identified by a compass. It indicates the direction toward the Earth's North Pole. When you face north, you are looking toward the top of most maps. North helps us orient ourselves and determine directions, alongside east, south, and west. It is used in navigation, geography, and positioning to provide a common frame of reference, ensuring accurate communication of location and movement. Think of north as the direction that points toward the Earth's northernmost point, guiding travelers and map readers alike.
