Antarctica is situated in the Antarctic region of the Southern Hemisphere containing the geographical south pole, almost entirely south of the Antarctic Circle, and is surrounded by the Southern Ocean. At 14,000,000 square kilometers (5,400,000 square miles), it is the fifth-largest continent in area after Asia, Africa, North America, and South America. For comparison, Antarctica is nearly twice the size of Australia.
Antarctica is the only continent without reptiles and insects with 90% of the world’s fresh water is in Antarctica with 99% of it covered in ice and it is free of government and ownership. This are some of the wonder of the universe so enjoy beautiful pictures of the ANTARCTICA.
