North pole
The northernmost polar region of the Northern Hemisphere is called the Arctic Region.
Polar regions are the areas of the globe surrounding the globe also known as frigid zones. The Northe pole and the South pole being the centres, these regions being dominated by the polar ice caps, resting respectively on the Arctic Ocean and the continent of Antarctica. Polar sea ice is currently diminishing, possibly as a global warming.
In the Arctic Polar Region, there is the US, Canada, Denmark (via Greenland), Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Russia. In the Antarctic Polar Region, there is only the continent of Antarctica.
The Antarctic region has more land than the Arctic region. Antarctica is a large continent comprised mostly of land covered in ice, while the Arctic is mostly comprised of water surrounded by land masses.
The northern polar region has more land as it includes the Arctic region surrounded by continents such as North America, Europe, and Asia. In contrast, the southern polar region, Antarctica, is a continent surrounded by the Southern Ocean.

Polar bears live only in the northern polar regions - which includes the Arctic and Arctic Circle regions. They do not live in the Antarctic.
A polar projection of the earth shows a pole (north or south, depending on the projection) at the center of a circular map. The equator is the circumference of the circle.
It does not live anywhere in the Arctic (the north polar region). The Weddell Seal is a native of the Antarctic (the south polar region)
You would be in the Arctic Region. Antarctic is the south polar region.
The Arctic and antarctic are the two polar ice regions. Iceland does exist, but is not considered to be a polar region.
Lines of latitude on a polar projection map radiate outward from the center towards the edges of the map. On a polar projection map, the North Pole is typically at the center, while lines of latitude move southward towards the map edges.
The polar region around the North Pole is called the Arctic and the polar region around the South Pole is called the Antarctic Region
A Polar Bear is found in the Arctic region, which has a polar climate.
