What are the two conditions to make Antarctica the coldest place on Earth?

Two things.One, being at the South Pole, it's tied for being the farthest from the Equator with the Arctic ice at the North Pole. Being so far means it doesn't get a whole lot of sun.Two, and this is the difference maker, Antarctica is a land mass. This not only provides elevation (Antarctica's permanence allows ice to constantly accumulate, providing considerable elevation which drops the temperature further) but also prevents the temperature-balancing effects of water from tempering the cold the way it does in the Arctic Ocean.
