The factor that does not contribute to earth's climate is : B. Longitude
As long as you're located in the same longitude, you're gonna have a same climate. That's why all the countries that located near the equator all have tropical climate
hope this helps
There are a couple of answers to this:
A: A lot of people back then were heavily Catholic, the Catholic church claimed that the Earth was flat, while others believed the Earth was round.
B: Back then, obviously they didn't have airplanes or satellites, thus people believed the Earth was flat. The reasoning of this is because, if you were to look outside right now, the Earth does look like it could be flat. (that is because you have to be at a certain level of elevation to see the curvature of the Earth). Eventually though, people started reasoning and came to the conclusion the Earth was round. (They were proven right when aerospace technology came around.)
It is north of the equator.
