DetourmapAntarctica
781 places on Detourmap sit here — glaciers, bays, ice shelves, islands, mountains and volcanoes. Antarctica has no sovereign state, so nothing on it carries a country. They appear on no country page for that reason, which is why they have this one. The best known is Lake Vostok. Ranked by how many Wikipedia editions cover them; this is 1–150, on page 1 of 6.
