The hemisphere is the imaginary line which divides the Earth into two. Both divided parts have names, the northern hemisphere, and the southern hemisphere.

Have a great day!

depends on which hemisphere you need. it could be half a sphere or a half of the earth, usually as divided into northern and southern halves by the equator, or into western and eastern halves by an imaginary line passing through the poles.
