Roald Amundsen.
Norway was the first Scandinavian country to fly its flag at the South Pole. Roald Amundsen, a Norwegian explorer, led the first successful expedition to reach the South Pole in 1911.
According to the history books, it was the North Pole in 1909, with the South Pole following 2 years later. But, seeing the considerable doubt that has been uncovered about Peary's claim to the North Pole, there may have to be a revision.
The South Pole was discovered by explorers on December 14, 1911, by a Norwegian explorer named Roald Amundsen.
Roald Amundsen was the first to reach the south pole, beating Scott. He came from Norway.
Alaska, Canada, and Greenland are closer to the North Pole, while Siberia and Norway are also closer to the North Pole but farther south compared to the other three. Greenland is the closest to the North Pole out of the mentioned regions.
Amundsen discovered the south pole.
The North Pole belongs to the Arctic region, which is mostly governed by the Arctic Council made up of Arctic countries. The South Pole belongs to Antarctica, which is governed by the Antarctic Treaty System with international cooperation from several countries. Both poles are not located on any specific continent but rather on ice sheets surrounded by oceans.
None of it. A six month day can only occur at the north or south pole. Neither of these is in Norway.
Rhoald Amundsen discovered the south pole!!
The north and south celestial poles are two imaginary points and therefore cannot be "discovered".
West of Norway, East of Kamchatka, South of the North Pole, North of Ecuador.
The honour of first stepping foot at the South Pole belongs to Norwegian explorers Roald Amundsen and his team, who finished their quest on December 14, 1911.
