Flag of Antarctica - Wikipedia
It's not an official flag since it's not a country and not governed by any kind of authority. However, it's considered a de facto condominium, governed by parties to the Antarctic Treaty System that have consulting status. The icon shown represents the "True South" flag designed and proposed by Evan Townsend. It's been adopted by non-profits, research teams, and a few National Antarctic programs and was used as the 2022 marker for the geographic South Pole.
