It interacts with the magnetic fieds in earth so it will point north, northeast, northwest, east, west, south, southeast, and southwest to the correct directions due to the magnetic fields of the earth.

Other compasses have a fixed compass rose and use a free spinning magnetic needle on a pivot to point towards magnetic north.
