Australia’s only territorial conflict

[An idea to divide Antarctica based on open sea access](http://strangemaps.wordpress.com/2007/11/20/207-antarctica-but-sliced-differently/).

I’ve always found it amusing that the CIA’s *World Factbook* lists [Australia](https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/as.html) as having an international dispute over its Antarctic claism – the reality is that only the US really cares, because they don’t have any. Perhaps this idea, which gives the US a very sizeable territory, is the solution to the ‘dispute’.
