Seven different countries have made (overlapping) claims to certain portions of Antarctica (the U.S. and Russia have made no claims, but may do so in the future). Some countries (the U.S. included) do not officially recognize the claims of other countries. Paraphrased from: http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/ay.html#Govt[^] - Mike

So the claims are basically just really big "wishes"? :) -- Gott weiß ich will kein Engel sein.

I was working on some software recently that dealt with postcodes and the Australian bit actually has its own postcode, just in case you want to send something there :-):rolleyes:

Who can blame them? I mean, who wouldn't want to stake a claim on a big chunk of 98% ice and 2% barren rock? :) - Mike

I guess owning that much ice must be a big boon to bartenders and drink industry.. :rolleyes: -- Gott weiß ich will kein Engel sein.

Heh, I should post something to an antarctic address to see if they actually deliver. And if they don't, I could sue them. Muhahahaha! Oh wait. Australia isn't the US. :sigh: -- Gott weiß ich will kein Engel sein.
