Considering how greedy humans are, it's surprising there's anywhere outside of Antarctica nobody owns. That area is Bir Tawil.

For the people mentioning the Serbian-Croatian border dispute, while there are some areas that are claimed by neither nation, they are all still militarily occupied so effectively still controlled by either Serbia or Croatia.

That border was drawn back in 1945 following the Danube river. The river changed it's course since then. Croatia claims the border from 1945 still stands, while Serbia claims that when Yugoslavia fell apart, the new border reflects the new flow of the Danube river. Serbian military controls all the claimed land however, so it's technically occupied.

It wouldn't matter what the UN said of anybody had both the desire & ability to actually annex the place. The reason nobody has is that it is far from all the great powers that could try- they're all located well North of the Equator- and it's a nearly sterile hellhole few people would want to live in. If Antarctica shared a land border with inhabitable, better places it would've ended up like the Sahara or Siberia- minimally colonized and claimed rather than formally abandoned to a couple scientific outposts.

Imagine china...being china...sure they can face repercussion for their actions, but you seriously think any country will try to defend against china an irrevelant country as your? And god forbid when criminals from sudan/egypt decide to conduct their business there and you have to fix this problem or else soudan/egypt will be seriously displeased (well they probably already do, but at least there is nobody to currently blame ) Only solution would be to recieve the protection of a bigger country ( some country like monaco or the masharl island are in this situation ), but it would be percieved as an agressive military sttlement from said country by egypt/soudan.

Whether you do something that pisses Sudan or Egypt (or the USA and NATO for that matter) off enough, to invade and claim it, though; that's a different story...but those things are extremely unlikely, unless you are using it not just for smuggling/trafficking, but specifically it becomes one of the new most major routes for such in all of Africa...then they might take notice...but even then maybe not, depending on the geopolitics of it all.

Aren't there still a couple river borders with unclaimed land? A lot of countries use rivers as borders, but when they move due to erosion, one will inevitably claim the current river should be the border and the other will claim that it was the river when whatever treaty determining the border was signed. This leads to similar situations to Egypt/Sudan where both countries claim some land and neither claim other land.

Technically, Bir Tawil isn't unclaimed, it's more that both sides say it belongs to the other side in return for another parcel of land, the Halayib triangle. Basically, Egypt says Bir Tawil is Sudan's, and Sudan says Bir Tawil is Egypt's. Same goes for the Serbian-Croatian border dispute.

There is a similar place in what used to be Yugoslavia. Border was defined by a river, but the course of the river changed. One side wanted to keep the borders the same and one side wanted the border to change with the river. Neither side can claim a particular chunk of territory without capitulating their claim to a more valuable piece of territory. Some peeps decided to set up a libertarian/anarchist utopia, but both sides decided that even if they can't agree whose territory it is that it is one of theirs and not someone else's.

One must remember though that everyone agrees that it belongs to either Egypt or Sudan, they just don’t want to claim it at the moment. So internationally even if you claimed the land you would never get it because it’s either Egyptian or Sudanese.

I like to imagine a distant future where the entire Earth is united, but the United Earth Republic still doesn't claim 100% of the land... because it still doesn't claim Bir Tawil. Why? Well, due to some weird clerical issue. When Egypt and Sudan were united into the UER, they were both admitted according to their actual controlled border. And since neither of them, nor any other country controlled Bir Tawil... it remains the only territory on Earth that is not part of Earth the country.
