Now I'm not sure it's my question, but I'm just gonna be an arse and ask one. I hope you don't mind. :)

Seven sovereign states have made eight territorial claims to land in Antarctica south of the 60° S parallel. Name those seven countries, please. And, which country has made the largest claim?

Argentina, New Zealand, US, Chile?

Argentina is not the largest.
