Default Re: If interstellar Colonies become possible, who goes first?

There is a treaty against settling Antartica. It is probable that a settlement would not make economic sense but currently it is forbidden. Argentina stretches research as much as possible so if that treaty is ended or abrogated by someone they can claim a chunk. Their main research facility has a post office, a sortof local government and they have had married couples that have had children born there. Gives them a strong claim that it is their territory.
