Whenever I turn the globe there's a round circle thing that turns with it. I noticed that it says am and pm on it and there's numbers, so I think it tells time zones, but what do the numbers mean? How do I use it?

it relates time zones to lines of longitude ( east west)
there are 360 degrees in the full circle and 24 hours in the full day
360 deg / 24 hour = 15 degrees/hour,
the local time changes by about 1 hour each 15 deg you travel east or west
by rotating the dial to the time in your locality you can tell the time in any other part of the world
get a book called "Longitude" the sailors in the 1500s needed accurate clocks thy could take on ships in order to navigate east and west. they use the sun and north star to tell how far north or south they were.
