временске зоне
It was Stanford Fleming, a Canadian railway engineer, who had the idea of dividing the Earth into 24 time zones. Based on the Greenwich meridian, time advances by one hour for every 15° of longitude. The system of worldwide time was first introduced by the USA and Canada in 1883. Watches that show the time around the world indicate one or more time zones on the dial.
