Antarctica is 100% completely south of the north pole, the Arctic Circle, the
Tropic of Cancer, the equator, the Tropic of Capricorn, all of North America,
South America, Asia, Africa, Australia, and Europe, and it's almost but not quite
completely south of the Antarctic Circle.
But it's 100% completely north of the south pole.
