What is the origin of the idiom "poles apart" and when to use it?

The idiom "poles apart" finds its origin in the geographical concept of the Earth's poles, specifically the North and South Poles, which are situated at opposite ends of the planet. The metaphorical extension of this idea emerged to describe two things or people that are extremely different, distant, or incompatible. The phrase is often used to emphasize significant contrasts or disparities in opinions, characteristics, or circumstances.

What is the origin of the idiom "a world of difference" and when to use it?

The phrase is mostly used to emphasize the magnitude of the dissimilarity, suggesting that the variance is so substantial that it can be likened to the disparities found across diverse cultures, geographies, or circumstances.
