Tricontinental Chile

Map of Tricontinental Chile with possessions in South America (mainland), Oceania (Easter Island), and Antarctica (Chilean Antarctic Territory)

Tricontinental Chile (Spanish: Chile tricontinental) is a geopolitical concept denoting Chile's unique position with its mainland in South America, Easter Island in Oceania (Polynesia) and the Chilean Antarctic Territory in Antarctica.[1] This concept is built on the basis that there are Chilean territories as far away from the mainland as to be considered part of Polynesia and on a larger scale, Oceania, and Chile's claims to Antarctica provide it a basis for claiming to be a part of Antarctica as well.
