There are no nations at all on the continent of Antarctica. Next to Antarctica, Australia has the least. Antarctica has none.
Australia has the fewest number of nations. It is a continent with just one nation, which bears the name of the continent - the Commonwealth of Australia. The nation is made up of six states and two territories, but it is a single nation.

Antarctica has no nations, as several nations have territorial rights to the continent. There are, however, no permanent residents or any form of government.
Antarctica, with 0.

I believe it will be Australia. If we compare the different time zone exposures that each continent has, we arrive at Australia as the one with the fewest.

Australia - GMT +8 to GMT +10 (3 zones)

Asia - GMT +4 to GMT +12 (9 zones)

Europe - GMT to GMT + 4 (5 zones)

Africa - GMT -1 to GMT +4 (6 zones)

South America - GMT -5 to GMT -2 (4 zones)

North America - GMT -10 to GMT -4 (7 zones)

Here GMT stands for Greenwich Mean Time and the numbers + or - determine how many hours difference in terms of timezones.

So, as you can see, Australia with only 3 time zones is the continent with the fewest time zone.
