Answer 2
I see your Tristan da Cunha, @mouviciel, and raise you with the aptly named Inaccessible Island. Although not strictly inhabited, people have been there before. Just about impossible except by fishing or research vessel out of Cape Town.

Answer 4
"Ushuaia" es la Ciudad Más Austral del Mundo. No se discute.
"Puerto Williams" en Chile es una aldea casi una base de casi 2.000 habitantes. Ushuaia una verdadera Ciudad de 57.000 habitantes. Y si los ingleses nos devolvieran nuestras Islas Sandwich del Sur (hoy dependientes de Gran Bretaña a la fuerza ilegítima), cuya isla Thula más al Sur está a los 59 grados de Latitud Sur casi tocando el paralelo 60, ENTONCES la República ARGENTINA ES EL PAÍS MÁS AUSTRAL DEL MUNDO.
Chile el segundo más Asutral con la Isla Diego Ramirez; pero la Argentina el país Más al Sur con el Destacamento humano "Corbeta Uruaguay", destruído por los ingleses en 1982 (ese sería el asentamiento humano (y desde ya argentino) más al sur del planeta sin contar a la Antártida).
"Ushuaia" is the southernmost city in the world. This is not disputed.
"Port Williams" in Chile is a village of almost 2,000 inhabitants. Ushuaia a genuine city of 57,000 people. And if the English returned our South Sandwich Islands (today dependencies of Great Britain due to illegitimate force), whose southernmost island Thula is at 59 degrees of latitude almost touching the 60th parallel, ??THEN the ARGENTINE REPUBLIC IS THE SOUTHERNMOST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD.
Chile the second most southern with Diego Ramirez Island; but Argentina the country furthest to the south with the human detachment "Corvette Uruaguay" destroyed by the English in 1982 (that would be the human settlement (and right now Argentine) the most far south on the planet excluding Antarctica)...
(apologies, we've left some words as there by the translator as we didn't want to risk changing the intended meaning, even if it wasn't totally clear to us)
