Anyone look into any legal loopholes to set up shop down there? Off shore even maybe? I know lots of nations claim it but are not supposed to build colonies on it.
I’m somewhat familiar with Antarctica. There is one sector that has never been claimed by any nation. Some spots have been claimed by two or three nations, and some of the reasons for the claims (“It’s south of Argentina/It’s south of Chile”) are weak at best.
The United States and Russia have both reserved the right to claim the whole continent.
All claims have been suspended under the Antarctic Treaty.
That said, squatting might work.
belongs to everyone and no one, interesting huh?
