Nauru is in the Pacific Ocean, 37 miles south from the equator. Its republic is the smallest in the world. Not much is known about Nauru’s culture, as the culture has slowly faded away. Nauru still has a bit of their culture so let me talk to you about it. 

They still use national materials found on the island to make crafts and arts, these materials include; kokospalme wood, kokofasern fans, and screw tree sheets.

Nauru’s native language is dorerin Naoero. All of their traditional songs are all by Dorerin Naoero. 

Nauru has no native land mammals, but there are insects, land crabs, and birds that are native to them. Nauru’s native birds include; white tern, Black noddy, Brown noddy, and Pacific reef heron. 

Nauru, like its neighbours, consumes a lot of seafood and coconut in their diet. A known dish is raw fish (usually tuna) drowned in coconut milk with other herbs and seasonings. 

Nauru has really pretty landmarks like the Bauda Lagoon or the Anibare Bay.If you go to Nauru you could see a lot of ancient cultural things you can see in the Nauru museum.Like this old traditional clothing in the photo.

Australian rules football is the official national sport.Many island weightlifters have successfully won medals and beaten people from other larger countries.

Nauru was invaded by Germany in1888. Britain and Germany started mining the island’s phosphate together in the early 20TH century. Japan later invaded the island in 1942 and left the island in 1945.It became a country in 1968 and joined the commonwealth.

Nauru is a lovely tropical island that I recommend you visiting. Even when it’s winter, because winter feels like a warm shower! The weather is always good. And lastly I think it’s a good excuse to have 2 ice blocks every day!
