ANTARcTICA

Antarctica is a cold desert because it receives less than 10 inches of snow annually, which never melts due to extreme cold temperatures. Despite being on the bottom of the world, it is colder than the North Pole. Antarctica does not have a king or president, only scientists from different nations who stay for a maximum of 9 months. Icebergs are present in Antarctica, and it is home to various animals.
