Good Afternoon,
I believe what you are speaking of may be the following. There is the equator is the center of the earth. Then, their is, on top of the equator, The Tropic of Cancer which passes through Cuba. On the bottom of the Equator, is the Tropic of Capricorn which passes through the Amazon Forest in South America. I hope that i have helped and good luck!
Thank you,
Darian D.
