This page is divided into the following sections: Click on the country names to return to the top of the page. Map of the World | Europe | Asia | Africa | North America | Central America | South America | Australasia Antarctica is divided up amongst France, the Union, the Dutch, Zululand, Portugal, Chile, Argentina, the OSU and the Northern System in the later twentieth century by means of 'normal' colonisation. There are a few coastal settlements, some of them penal and/or mining colonies. There is no overall treaty regarding the continent beyond those formalising its division, so there are mining and environmental problems in some places. Mining colonies have mostly been set up by dictatorial nations after minerals were discovered there; France has the most of these. OranjelandThe Dutch colony in Antarctica, including part of the coast and area around the south pole itself, which the Dutch were the first to reach, and claim, in 1920. ShakalandThe Zulu colony in Antarctica. It the Zulu New Frontier, and many resources are directed at its conquest. WilliamslandThe part of Antarctica claimed by the Union.
