The Antarctic continent-- and all of planet earth south of 60 degrees S -- is protected and governed by the Antarctic Treaty. The treaty preserves this geography for the scientific study of the health of planet earth. There are no commercial enterprises, no governments, cities, states or sovereignty here.

These restrictions preserve the area and maintains its pristine, undisturbed condition.
