The '''[[South Pole]]''', also known as the '''Geographic South Pole''' or '''Terrestrial South Pole''', is one of the two points where the Earth's axis of rotation intersects its surface. It is the southernmost point on the surface of the Earth and lies in [[Antarctica]] on the opposite side of the Earth from the North Pole. The South Pole is both the southernmost and easternmost point of [[Westarctica]].
'''[[Hooverville]]''' is a city in the [[Colony of Calsahara]]. It is the only permanent structure in the entire colony. The [[Count of Dendtler]] is the Mayor of Hooverville. It lies within the Barony of Bastanchury in the [[Principality of Bohemia]]. During the [[Invasion of Calsahara|Liberation of Calsahara]], Hooverville was considered a vital target for the [[Westarctican Royal Guards]]. Shortly after [[Otisburg]] was overrun, the Royal Guards marched on Hooverville and victory was proclaimed from the house's broken steps.


The first men to reach the Geographic South Pole were the Norwegian [[Roald Amundsen]] and his party on December 14, 1911. Amundsen named his camp Polheim and the entire plateau surrounding the Pole King Haakon VII Vidde in honor of King Haakon VII of Norway. [[Robert Falcon Scott]] returned to Antarctica with his second expedition, the Terra Nova Expedition, initially unaware of Amundsen's secretive expedition. Scott and four other men reached the South Pole on January 17, 1912, thirty-four days after Amundsen. On the return trip, Scott and his four companions all died of starvation and extreme cold.
