INDIAN GEOGRAPHY

Detailed explanation-1: -Solution: Bering Strait is nearest to the International Date Line because the international Date Line runs equidistant between the American continents, to its east, and Asia, Australia, and Europe to its west.

Detailed explanation-2: -The international date line, established in 1884, passes through the mid-Pacific Ocean and roughly follows a 180 degrees longitude north-south line on the Earth. It is located halfway around the world from the prime meridian-the 0 degrees longitude line in Greenwich, England.

Detailed explanation-3: -In order to avoid the confusion of having different dates in the same country, the International Date Line bends and goes zig zag at the Bering Strait between Siberia and Alaska, Fiji, Tonga and in some other islands.
