ABOUT NAURU

Nauru, officially known as the Republic Of Nauru (originally called Pleasant Island), is a Pacific Island country (Nauru is located in the Central Pacific) located approx. 300 km’s from Kiribati and North East of the Solomon Islands.

Nauru is one of the Pacific’s smallest island nations  and is the third smallest country in the world. Nauru only covers an area of approx. 20 square kilometers.

Nauru was settled by the Polynesian and Micronesian people, approx. 3,000 years ago. There were originally 12 tribes on Nauru, these tribes are represented in the twelve pointed star on the country’s flag.   The population of Nauru is about 12,000 people. The largest city in Nauru is Denigomodu, with a population of approx. 1,700 people. Denigomodu is located on the western side of the island of Nauru. The Island nation does not have a capital city as such, however parliament is located in Yaren a district on the south of the island.

The Japanese occupied Nauru during the second world war. After world war 2 Nauru was trusted into the United Nations administration and in 1969 Nauru gained independence.

Nauru has rich phosphate rock deposits , which allow simple strip mining, Nauru’s phosphate was extensively mined on the island in the 1980’s and early 1990’s , by the late 1990’s Nauru’s phosphate reserves were exhausted and the islands environment had been devastated by mining.

Since 2001 Nauru has accepted aid from Australia in exchange for hosting the Nauru Regional Processing Centre, a detention center located on Nauru for asylum seekers wishing to enter Australia.

The Port of Nauru accepts commercial container vessels and is currently under going a major upgrade.

Since the early 2020’s Nauru has looked to Australia for economic assistance.

The Sovereign State Of Nauru is a current member of the United Nations and the Commonwealth of Nations
