Marie Byrd Land: A derelict land in Antarctica
Under international law, Antarctica is not owned by a single country. But as many as seven countries claim parts of the continent as their own: Argentina, France, Australia, Chile, New Zealand, Norway and the United Kingdom.
Although the area is disputed and claimed by many countries around the world, a corner of Antarctica is still unclaimed by any country. It is called Marie Byrd Land, named after the wife of US naval officer Richard E. Byrd, who explored the area in the early 20th century.
Marie Byrd Land is 1,605,792 square kilometers and is currently the largest unclaimed territory in the world because it is so isolated and not easily crossed, even by Antarctic standards.
