  1. its natutal , it rotates side ways as well as much slowly the vertical way, i found out that the present polar region was not always there as its now, it was somewhere near the equator !
  2. We expect the earth's magnetic north and south poles to eventually flip. This has happened many times in earth's history. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geomagnetic_reversal
  3. At present condition the true north is 3 degree away from magnetic north.
