I bet that they mean ''Western hemisphere'' in a culture and sociological sense.

Stop the presses! The Prime Meridian was put there by the Meridian Conference, and the President of the United States at the time had a lot to do with that. So our best bet would be to write to whoever is currently holding office, and ask him to move it about 32° to the East (we'll have to ask Finland what their exact boundaries are). That way all of the current 15 and future 25 European Union memberstates will be Western nations. In return, we could agree to henceforth call it Loyalty Meridian or Freedom Line.
