The Giant Trees and Their Unearthly Connection to Earth's Grid System

I kept coming across obscure, seemingly insignificant islands and island groups that are the subjects of territorial disputes between countries, many of which are still on-going in the present day, in my journey tracking cities and places in alignment with each other all over the Earth. I first published this video in October of 2019, so I have been wondering about this for a very long time.

Now that I understand about the existence of Giant Trees and their importance on the Earth's grid system, I have a likely answer to the question posed in the title of this video..."What is it Exactly About the World's Disputed Islands?"

NOW, FOR THE NARRATIVE...

One of the most famous giant trees is the Sequoiadendron giganteum, also known as the giant sequoia. These trees are the most massive on Earth and are native to the groves on the western slopes of the Sierra Nevada mountain range of California. The oldest known giant sequoia is between 3,200 and 3,266 years old. They grow to an average height of 50–85 m (164–279 ft) with trunk diameters ranging from 6–8 m (20–26 ft).

Before trees overtook the land, Earth was covered by giant mushrooms. From around 420 million to 350 million years ago, when land plants were still relatively new, giant spires of life, up to 24 feet (8 meters) high and as wide as three feet (one meter), dotted the Earth. These are believed to have been a type of fungus.

EARTH'S GRID SYSTEM

The Earth's grid system, also known as the geographic grid system, is a spherical or geodetic coordinate system that uses latitude and longitude to measure and communicate positions on the Earth's surface. It is the most widely used spatial reference system and provides a framework for locating points on Earth.

The grid system is based on the location of the North Pole, South Pole, and Equator. A great circle is any circle that divides the earth into a circumference of two equal halves. Examples of great circles include the Equator, all lines of longitude, the line that divides the earth into day and night called the circle of illumination. Small circles are circles that cut the earth, but not into equal halves. Examples of small circles include all lines of latitude except the equator.

Latitude is an angular measurement north or south of the equator. Longitude, on the other hand, is an angular measurement east or west of the Prime Meridian. Together, they form a coordinate system that allows us to pinpoint any location on Earth's surface.
