There are about 31 countries with a presence on Antarctica. Six of these support summer-only facilities.

Under the terms of the Antarctic Treaty, all research conducted is shared with all countries that either signed or ratified the treaty, which means that all research is shared among nation-states representing 80% of the population of planet Earth.
