Our administration is one of several that currently occupy the frozen continent of Antarctica. Except for the various man-made stations and military outposts that dot the coast, the vast majority of our territory is barren polar desert, that stretches as far as the eye can see.

Despite being a member of the Argentine military, Jorge Edgar Leal is an explorer and Antarctic enthusiast at heart. Unfortunately, the other administrations would rather use the continent for military exercises rather than scientific pursuits. In defiance of the norm, Leal's current goal is to successfully conduct an expedition to the South Pole, despite the risks that go along with attempting to make such a journey.

The 1958 Snipe War saw the rapid collapse of OFN-lead negotiations attempting to resolve the Chilean-Argentinean border dispute in Antarctica. In June of 1958, the Argentinean Navy invaded and seized the disputed western portion of their Antarctic claim, as well as several islands in the Beagle Channel. Despite the Argentinean government officially denying their involvement in the incident, OFN mediators withdrew from negotiations between the two South American countries, leaving Argentina to deal with her ill-gotten gains. The aftermath of the war still lingers today, with Chile constantly looking for a way to reclaim her lost territory, and with tensions remaining between the Instituto Antártico Argentino and the Argentinean Navy.
