Show Notes
Despite its relatively low population, Antarctica has been host to some serious crimes over the years. Of course Antarctica has never had a permanent population, and its population is mainly made up of research stations that have been there for 100 years. Although a few countries claim sovereignty over parts of Antarctica, it isn’t governed in the same way as the rest of the world. There is no police force, no judiciary, no prisons.
According to the Antarctic Treaty, 53 nations (it’s a long story) agreed that criminals on the continent should be tried by their own country’s laws and regulations. Today we’re taking a look at Antarctica’s short but interesting crime history!
