In other than three dimensions, it does not make sense to describe a rotation as being around an axis, since more than one axis through the object may be kept fixed; instead, simple rotations are described as being in a plane. In four or more dimensions, a combination of two or more rotations about a plane is not in general a rotation in a single plane.

Axis of 2-dimensional rotations

2-dimensional rotations, unlike the 3-dimensional ones, possess no axis of rotation, only a point about which the rotation
