Territorial claims in Antarctica

Currently there are seven nations who maintain a territorial claim in Antarctica. It is sometimes stated that the Antarctic Treaty defers or suspends these claims. However, Article IV of the treaty, which deals with the issue of territorial claims, merely specifies that previously asserted claims are not affected by the treaty. Many maps continue to show the territorial claims.
