they will not allow us

Article IV § 2 states: No acts or activities taking place while the present Treaty is in force shall constitute a basis for asserting, supporting or denying a claim to territorial sovereignty in Antarctica. No new claim, or enlargement of an existing claim, to territorial sovereignty shall be asserted while the present Treaty is in force

That only applies to countries that has signed the treaty. Which we won't. Anyway, non of the nations have the right to deny our claim either. Also, if they disagree with our decision they can't do anything since according to the treaty, no military activity is allowed on Antarctica. I don't see what could possibly stop us? (except for money)

hmm

you made a point there

but it's Antarctica, it's -70C Cheesy

who would want to live here? Cheesy

altough, yeah, nice temperature so our miners don't overheat Cheesy

but we'll have a hard time acquiring free electricity
