I'm honestly not sure which sub this belongs in, so I'll just drop it here. If this is more of a legal question, maybe an admin can move it to a more appropriate section.
So, while messing around on Google Maps, I stumbled upon an island. It looks like a legitimate landmass, but according to everything else I know, it shouldn't even exist. It’s right there on the map, though. It isn't particularly massive.
Width: 1.7 miles
Length: 2.1 miles
(I used the measurement tool in Google Maps to get those numbers)
I've done some digging online, and there is absolutely no record of this island existing anywhere.
If this turns out to be a genuine, undiscovered island, would I have any legal claim to it?
And more importantly, could I actually name it after myself?
