This user supports New Zealand Sovereignty over Ross Dependency |
I am not aware that a capital has ever been designated for an Antarctic territory, yet according to this entry, Scott Base is the capital of Ross Dependency. If there are no objections, I will delete this factually unsupported entry. -- Mike Beidler 12:25, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
This may be tricky. I don't know of any published reports of the flag, but a friend of mine who worked at Scott Base for a season did take a flag down to the Big Ice with him and said that he flew it. It certainly has no official status and AFAIK has never been officially flown there. Grutness... wha? 00:36, 4 November 2006 (UTC) (James Dignan)

No piece of Antarctica belongs to any country. Like all the other Antarctic territorial claims, this entry should state in the introductory language that it is a claim. The language should be in line with the British Antarctic Territory or the Argentine Antarctica. Esquierman ( talk) 15:52, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
