Any situation that has a path that stops at the same position that it started from has a displacement of zero.

Displacement is known as the net movement of an object with respect to its original position. One may travel out of his city and return. Despite having covered many miles, he will have have a displacement of 0.
This is true for all paths that have zero displacement, that they all return to their original position.
