The More You Know: The polar bear habitat spans 5 nations:

1. Denmark (Greenland)
2. Norway (Svalbard)
3. Russia
4. US (Alaska)
   
5. Canada

These five nations signed the 1973 International Agreement for the Conservation of Polar Bears, which mandates cooperation on research and conservations efforts throughout the polar bear's range.

Also, I'm pretty sure Svalbard is where the armored bears live in The Golden Compass.
