The two major countries with territorial claims in the Antarctic Circle are Argentina and Chile. Both nations have established overlapping claims on portions of the continent, with Argentina claiming the Argentine Antarctic Territory and Chile claiming the Chilean Antarctic Territory. These claims are part of a broader international framework regulated by the Antarctic Treaty System, which emphasizes scientific cooperation and prohibits military activity on the continent. However, the treaty does not resolve the sovereignty disputes, allowing these countries to maintain their interests in the region.
