Best Answer

Scott's crew came from at least six different countries. At the time of the Terra Nova expedition, Ireland was still part of Britain, so the separate countries represented amongst Scott's crew were Britain, Australia, Norway, Canada, Russia, and Ukraine.

The vast majority of the crew were British, and the majority of them came from England. However, there were four Irishmen (Tom Crean, Patrick Keohane, Robert Forde, and the dog driver Cecil Meares) and a Welshman (Edgar Evans).

The crew also included a Russian dog handler (Dmitri Gerof), a Ukrainian groom (Anton Omelchenko), a Canadian physicist (Charles Wright), a Norwegian ski instructor (Tryggve Gran), and two Australians (T. Griffith Taylor, the senior geologist, and Frank Debenham, another geologist).
