Time zones follow the same means of dividing the world into 24 parts or segments each with different time

There is an imaginary starting point that passes through the least-inhabited part of the Pacific Ocean that is the International Date Line. Each day starts there and moves with the sun to the west.

Since time zones are based on segments of longitude and lines of longitude narrow at the poles, scientists working at the North and South Poles simply use UTC time. Otherwise, Antarctica would be divided into 24 very thin time zones

The British colony, New Zealand at the time, was the first to adopt a standard time to be observed by the colony

November 18, 1883

At noon the US and Canada railroads begin using four continental time zones to end the confusion of dealing with thousands of local time. This was power shared by the railroad companies.

Mostly all Americans and Canadians embraced the time zones since they traveled around with railroads all the time.

Railway time was the standardised time arrangement first applied by the Great Western Railway in England in November 1840, the first recorded occasion when different local times were synchronised and a single standard time applied.

Officials have adjusted the boundaries of many time zones to keep political units, such as countries, within a single time zone.

The reason why we have 24 different time zones if we only had one time zone noon would be the middle of the day in some places, but it would be morning, evening and the middle of the night in others. Since different parts of the Earth enter and exit daylight at different times

Time zones can be confusing at first to fully understand it, because the earth rotates 360 degrees each day, each zone was to represent 15 degrees longitude because of the division 360 degrees to 24 hours will equal 15 degrees

Time Zones are divided into 24 time zones, one for each hour.  It is also called International Date Line
