February 20, 2013: East vs. West

The East and the West are both cardinal directions. They both have coasts here in the United States that we refer to quite commonly. Also, they can both be used to tell where something is becasue they are directions.

One difference of the east and west is that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. Another difference is "the west" can typically refer to the United States becasue we are commonly called "The Western World" in relation to the rest of the world. Europe and Asia can be referred to as "the Eastern World." This is true because the US is in the Western Hemisphere and Europe and Asia are in the Eastern Hemisphere.

I am pretty indifferent when it comes to the east and west.
