Kiribati
Kiribati is scattered across the central Pacific in three island groups — 33 low-lying atolls and reef islands spread over an ocean area roughly the size of the continental United States. The land itself is thin and flat, rarely more than a few metres above sea level, ringed by lagoons that shift between turquoise and deep blue depending on the light and the hour.
About Kiribati
Overview
Kiribati (pronounced "Kiribas") straddles both the equator and the International Date Line, making it among the first places on Earth to see each new day. The capital, South Tarawa, sits on the Gilbert Islands chain. I-Kiribati culture is Micronesian, with strong traditions of communal living and oral storytelling. The Australian dollar and local Kiribati dollar circulate at parity. Official languages are English and Gilbertese.
