Best Answer

All land, ice and water south of 60 degrees S on planet Earth is governed by the Antarctic Treaty. This is a condominium form of governance. The treaty preserves all of this geography for the scientific study of the health of our planet.

This means that no one 'owns' any part of Antarctica, yet it benefits us all.
