An imaginary line that crosses Ecuador

The equator is a line that splits the globe into northern and southern hemispheres. This line is determined by finding the widest part of the earth, which is a spheroid (like a sphere but squished at the poles). The equator also is the line around which the magnetic field is reversing. The vectors of the field are going away from the north pole and coming in towards the south, and below the equator, the field is moving in towards the earth.

The UN did not react in any particular manner in order to prevent the conflict, and even when it started it was slow to react. The UN reaction was way to late, after the genocide was largely performed, and luckily for the Tutsi, their military wing managed to defeat the extremist Hutu organizations and stop the genocide.
