Several European nations had overlapping claims on territories. The Spanish were given Florida from the French, then got into a territorial dispute with Britain, turning over the land in the Pinkney Treaty of 1795. Louisiana was given to the Spanish by the British, then the French took possession of the land. It was about to become the permanent property of Spain, but Thomas Jefferson beat them to the claim by working out a deal with France for the Louisiana Purchase.

Which country's claims on Antarctica overlap?
Claims over territory on the Antarctic continent overlap based on lines of longitude and those being used to define territory claimed.
