Obelix: Where are we off to now?
Asterix: To the border! East, to the country of the Visigoths.
Obelix: So the Visigoths are Goths from the east?
Asterix: No, the Visigoths are Goths from the west. The Goths from the east are Ostrogoths, but in relation to us, the Goths from the west live in the east. Do you see?
Obelix: NO.

Nice try. The “center” is based off the Prime Meridian in Greenwich, England, nothing more.
