Antarctica is frequently called the frozen continent because the vast majority of the continent is covered in ice up to several kilometres thick.

Australia is a country as well as a continent.

Antarctica has no countries, though seven nations claim different parts of it: New Zealand, Australia, France, Norway, the United Kingdom, Chile, and Argentina.

The smallest country in the world is Vatican City.

Oceania (43 million) is the smallest continent on the basis population if Antarctica is excluded as there is no population estimates for Antarctica by UN (World Population Prospects 2019).

The Sahara is the world's largest desert; it extends across most of the northern part of Africa.

The Pacific Ocean is the largest and deepest of the world ocean basins.

The Arctic Ocean is the smallest of the world's five ocean basins.

The ocean is a huge body of saltwater that covers about 71 percent of Earth's surface.

We would cross the Atlantic Ocean if we travel from Europe to New York as this ocean comes in between.

As it does in the Arctic, the surface of the ocean around Antarctica freezes over in the winter and melts back each summer.

Antarctic sea ice usually reaches its annual maximum extent in mid- to late September, and reaches its annual minimum in late February or early March.
