Tonga is curious: it is one of the first countries to enter the New Year. There the clock is always ahead of the rest of the world, because Tonga is the highest place west of the “International Date Shift Line”. This imaginary line, which cuts across the planet from north to south, was created by scientists to mark the beginning of the counting of days. As the sun rises in the east, the new year arrives for the rest of the world, from Tonga, to the left (west). Whoever crosses the Date Shift line from west to east subtracts a day from the calendar. And whoever crosses it in the opposite direction goes to the next day!!!
