Not Britain. Antarctic Treaty.

However this is the new Antarctic Peninsula hp and a significant summit.

We have some desert too. When I was working on a ship in the Med I perused the charts and was surprised to see that some of Cyprus is British Territory. It's just rocks and baking sun, you wouldn't like it much. Scorpions and snakes all over the place.
