Adolfo III Land is the territory in Tierrasur claimed by Creeperopolis. The territorial claim is named after Adolfo III, who was reigning as Emperor of Creeperopolis at the time Tierrasur was discovered. The claim covers the geographic area known as Adolfo III Land, which was named after the initial Creeperian claim.
The territory was founded and claimed by Creeperian Admiral Agustín Prat Chacón on 6 January 1839 when he discovered Tierrasur after an expedition south to find a quicker and more direct route to the San Carlos Islands. Throughout the late-19th and early 20th centuries, Creeperian expeditions ventured into the continent to explore and map the continent. Currently, three research bases and one civilian settlement, Punto Sur, are located in Adolfo III Land. As of 2021, a total of 270 people live in Tierrasur during the summer while it is reduced to 250 people during the winter. A total of eleven babies have been born in Adolfo III Land
The highest point is Punto Adolfo III; its peak is 10,627 feet (3,239 meters) in elevation. Adolfo III Land's lowest point is its shore with the Southern Ocean at sea level. Temperatures are almost always below the freezing point year-round.Tourism is offered by the Creeperian government during the summer months in Punto Sur and the surrounding areas, as well as tours to the Agustín Prat Chacón Base.
