Why does it get dark earlier in the south in the summer?

In the summer, the tilt of the Earth's axis causes the sun to take a different path across the sky, affecting how long daylight lasts. In the Southern Hemisphere, regions experience longer daylight hours during their summer months, but as you move further south, the sun sets earlier due to the curvature of the Earth and the angle of sunlight. This results in shorter evenings compared to areas further north. Additionally, geographic factors like latitude can influence local sunset times, contributing to the perception of earlier darkness.
