I really wanted to give you guys an episode before January was over and we JUST made it! Whoo hoo! Welcome to the LEAST VISITED COUNTRY in the world, #NAURU! Lots of cool facts. Enjoy!
@Geography Now hi!

I think Nauruan is the only nationality that is a palindrome (same forwards and backwards).
Don't think so: Nauruan backwards is Nauruan. American backwards is Nacirema.

They don't need a capital. There's no point since the entire country is small enough to be a single city anyway.
Just like Monaco or Singapore.
@@MustraOrdo but Liechtenstein is smaller than Singapore and it has a capital
@@demi172 Liechtenstein has mountains which prevent it from being 1 big city.
11k people... 😆 We have 16 Million people in my City..
Monaco's capital is Monte Carlo.
I don't understand people who say “Waiting for Russia” “Waiting for the US”. Almost everyone knows about those countries, but these small and obscure countries have very interesting stories that are worth to know. Thank you for these videos Paul, thank you for giving these countries and people a voice they don't usually have ❤️❤️
Yup 👍👍👍
Fíl Fóstur I agree. Without GeographyNow, all these small and interesting countries would remain a geographic blank in many commoners’ heads.
Am I the only one who can't wait for San Marino?😂

Now, the Flag Friday Nepal episode on the other hand is going to be nuts.

Wait, what?
They have 11,300 inhabitants but there are 130 Chinese restaurants?
That equals one Chinese restaurant per 86 citizens. That‘s a crazy ratio! 😳😳
1100people
@@diwashpokhrel2268 So one Chinese restaurant for every nine citizens. That's a lot of MSG.
@@diwashpokhrel2268 That's only the not-capital city's population. The total population is a little over 11,000, not 1100.
Haha thanks for pointing that out, that's a hilarious random fact to know!
I just looked it up, and in the netherlands (we like our chinese food quite a lot) there are 1090 chinese restaurants. But per capita that's only around 1 per 16.000 people. To think that there's almost 200 times as many chinese restaurants per capita in Nauru is crazy!

I just got back from Nauru a few days ago. They invited a couple international powerlifters out for their first International Powerlifting Championships and it was a great success! I'd say powerlifting is far more popular then weightlifting. Their most well known powerlifter is Jezza Uepa. Great country and even better people.
Oh and there are definitely ATMs on the island, at least 3 by my count.
Powerlifter here brother..
The smaller countries are far more interesting to watch 👍

Everyone: Nauru is least visited
Chinese: let's open 130+ restaurants lol
Same thing in Kiribati lol. Whats surprising is that they can actually speak the native language fluently. The Chinese are a very adaptable people.
@@TM686K Too true. When westerners migrate to new places they try so hard to maintain the lifestyle they had back home (find good plumbing, brick houses and western clothes). But wherever Chinese go you will see them doing exactly what the locals are doing. Last Chinese guy I saw walking around in my country was walking around in the bush barefoot with nothing but a sulu on and a machete in one hand looking for the person that broke into his shop. True Island style hahaha.
@@tungarunakoiaang1795 Dude seriously?? It's quite the opposite actually
Not that "westerners" adapt easily to other cultures, but Chinese are the least adaptable (is it acceptable to name most of them "racists"?) of them all. They all live close to each other, they barely learn the foreign language, they eat Chinese food etc etc not to mention the huge ties they still have to their motherland. I am not saying it's "bad" but I would like to know where is your "wherever" that you mention :P
As for myself, I live in Paris' China Town (does look totally different from the rest of the city), I come from an area in Italy where there are many Chinese (and you don't see them around, they just stick with each other) and overall in Europe it's everywhere like that.
@@andreatommasi3287 that’s interesting. In my country, they speak the language really good! Like locals

Another fun fact: There is a village in Tanzania called Nauru which definitely has no connection to that small South Pacific nation whatsoever.
Suomea!
My Dad was born in Australia but when he was about 6 him and his family moved to Nauru. (It had something to do with my grandfather's work but I'm not sure as to what he did. I'm fairly sure he worked with boats.) My Dad lived in Nauru from 1976 to about 1981 or 82 when they moved back to Brisbane. He likes to tell us about how large items of machinery were moved with cranes that had a weight capacity much larger than the weight of the object on the crane (about 5 metric tonnes) whilst someone was standing underneath the object. He also tells us about how you were able to see unexploded bombs from WWII when scuba diving. He says that my grandfather actually was hitting the side of one of the bombs because my Dad and uncle weren't able to see it.
That's really cool :o
There are more likes on this video then there are actual people in Nauru!

Ah yes, the place where my Filipino father and Tuvaluan mother met and fell in love in. Thank you for the video lol!
Really? Would love to know more
@@melopsicodelia Omg this was over a year ago! (Sorry for replying so late) I don't know too much but my Father was working in Nauru through the Nauru Phosphate Royalties Trust (During the 90's) which was a sovereign fund in which they invested in multiple countries such as Australia, USA and of course the Philippines. My Mother was there as she was studying nursing! They crossed paths somehow and my Father courted her. She eventually graduated and fell pregnant then they decided they would migrate to New Zealand to start a new life as Mum had loads of relatives that were already residing there! (Quick anecdote: Mum had to lie about how many weeks pregnant she was to actually board the flight because there was a limit of some sort) Mum flew here first as Dad forgot to pay for his ticket so he flew over a week or so later. They then got married, had a second child (my sister) and we've been here for as long as I've lived now (24 Years) am a proud Kiwi :D! Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk :)
@@mattbrunellehilaga892 Yes Kuya! She's Tuvaluan I'm surprised you know about Tuvalu! Well here in New Zealand a lot of our Filipina sisters are marrying Polynesian men like Samoans! Growing up I never knew another Polynesian/Asian kid haha but now they're flourishing!

@@pongop except wypipo
Another country learned! I admit I had to laugh when you said "there is only 1 traffic light". This is really interesting, I unfortunatly never learned geography on Oceania, not more than the 3 districts so this is all new to me.
You missed a trick by not calling this episode 'Geography: Nauru!'
Depending on how you say that it sounds like a bad Korean accent
lolwut
NAURU WAS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE COUNTRY SINCE 2017 AND NOW ALSO!!
I was in Nauru in 2006 on an exploration of Pacific Island nations. We were documenting birds and birdsong from Fiji to Faichuuk and Kwajalein to Palau and Titian in the Marianas. There is one endemic bird on Nauru--then Nauru Reed Warbler. Great little bird--loud and cheerful.
Nepal was technically ruled by a guy in a coma for less than 24 hours. He showed up at his parents party in full camo armed with an assault rifle, took out every member of his family, and then shot himself. Since he was the crown prince, and since he didn't do a very good job at offing himself, he was technically king for the few hours he had until he died. The state media tried to claim it was an accident.
Allegedly. There are conspiracy theories, however, saying that the entire thing was orchestrated by the Indian government. It does seem fishy that someone of such high ranks would go on a killing spree, wiping out his entire family and himself, for absolutely no reason.
@@feynstein1004 Um, you are familiar with the United States of America, yes? That sort of thing happens all the time.
@ParallaxNick Not sure how that's relevant but yes, I am aware of the existence of the US 😂
Nepali here, and no, Dipendra ruled for 3 days.
@Anshu Shrestha He did? I thought he died that very night. I was only 8 when it happened so I don't remember it very well.
Fun Fact: Nauru used to own the former tallest building in the Philippines called the Nauru building in the 1990s
Quick note: Yaron would be the De Facto capital, as it's not put into law (De Jure is Latin for "from law" and denoted the official, legal status, while De Facto shows how it actually is) it's really easy to get these phrases mixed up tho. Crusader Kings 2 was my teacher 😂
Same as Bern is the de facto capital of Switzerland.
Love to Nauru from Georgia 🇬🇪❤🇳🇷
Despite their recognition of Abkhazia and Ossetia 😅
@@asafrustamli945 Yeh...leta not talk about that. I actaully have a friend that is from Nauru.
@@kluchka7206 Yes. We know that it is the government who does that. I also love their people
@@asafrustamli945 Yep your right.
Aaah the formerly rich and now poor country
Argentina is not impressed
accompanied by venezula
Iraq and Libya say hi
I m sure they are not that poor..
Yugoslavia/ Serbia here
Hey Barbs, if Yaren is the unofficial capitol because that's where the parliament building is, then I think the proper term is "de facto." "De jure" means by right or by law, officially. Here's the Wikipedia entry, in part: "In law and government, de jure describes practices that are legally recognised, regardless of whether the practice exists in reality. In contrast, de facto describes situations that exist in reality, even if not legally recognised."
Oh, and I'm sure you meant that after independence they had the highest GDP per capita, not just GDP. All constructive criticism, amigo, 'cause I love Geography Now.
I thought that too!
exactly
I really liked this episode. I know this might be a controversial opinion but I like it more when it's only you narrating the whole episode. It's ok when maybe one part is narrated by someone else but when there are like 3 or even 4 people it starts to get a bit hectic and I tend to loose focus a bit.
Anyways keep up the great work guys. It's always interesting to learn something new.
i agree lol. Barb is the best.
8:42 That $5 note is incredibly out of date, we've had at least two changes since this one.
I'm a Finn and the name has stuck to my mind for one reason: in my language it says "laughter", which of course it creates an image of a very happy place...
It is indeed a very happy place
Thankyou Finn, Nauru is also known as Pleasant island. GOD bless you!
That photo at the end is of the New Zealand and Australia foreign minsters, Winston Peters and Marise Payne respectively. They were just meeting on Nauru for the Pacific Island Forum.
Exactly. The most accurate thing to do is leave Nauru out of it.
I would have to say that this is consistently my favorite channel on youtube, I learn so much with every new video!
The thing about Nauru that happened recently is that they declined the Kosovo independence for Serbia.
i don't know why i just heard it and looked about it
Well yeah, but it's kind of useless... Monkey Dacic brags about countries like Nauru, Comoros, Suriname etc. withdrawing the recognition of Kosovo, but they are irrelevant to us. China, Russia and Spain are the only important (to us at least) countries that don't recognize Kosovo.
Milana why is Dacic a monkey? All these so called ‘insignificant’ countries have 1 equal vote that is the same as the US and Russia in the UN, UNESCO, INTERPOL etc. So why would you belittle them as insignificant?
This episode feels nostalgic, filmed old-school style! :D
Narau: Australia's fun totally humane "camp"
That guy didn't immolate himself, he's uh.... celebrating
Nauru
they aren't looked after, the prisons there are crowded and crappy
Europe needs similar camps badly too. Luckily there are a lot of islands in the Mediterranean Sea to use.
Well that's what you get for coming illegaly, i see no problem
Thanks for the videos! The countries in Oceania fascinate me so I'd love to see more on places like Tuvalu (4th smallest country), Vanuatu (and their land diving) :D
Wow... I'm Palauan. I've met people from Nauru. I did not know that their island was 8 miles round-ish, I'm mind blown..😮😅! I agree Nauruans have "fascinating back stories", truly fascinating! I learned so much today 🤓 . People of Nauru, you are not forgotten 💖❤💖! Once covid-19 ends, I would like to plan a trip to Nauru.
Are you seriously Palauan?! Only 18,000 people live there
There was a time, i think in costa rica, when some egghead had an idea to recover ravaged land by asking its stewardship to let one of those big fruit companies(probably one that had some hand in the damage to begin with) dump all their organic waste/peels etc. It was controversial, and wound up getting stopped, but not until after tonnes upon tonnes of fruit waste was dumped on the land, saving the company money, a good incentive to get them to do useful things.
The project was forgotten, but, eventually, some students from some college went to check it out. They became confused, thinking they were some how getting lost in the tiny region, untill they found the marker sign, in a lush, overgrown, section of jungle. The land, which had been overcome by invasives, and scrub grass, which had died under the organic mulch, and it had become rich soil, allowing the surrounding jungle to retake the ground, far more rapidly than the most accepted projections.
If somewhere, a group would assist a similar approach, maybe that bombed out southern most Japanese islet, and let organic waste be gathered there, from wherever it's cheaper for a fruit company, and maybe Japanese sugarcane leftover pulps, along with helpful microbes, and fungi, like an attenuated oyster mushroom, it could be transported to the mine pocked ground, and used to fill it in, breaking down into arable soil, while leveling the ground.
I bet, within two wet seasons, their would be a shocking amount of activity, from birds, bugs, and crabs, all contributing to the buildup of good earth. Sections by the ground water could be used, once a layer of soil is established, to grow bio remediators, effective at the uptake, and sequestering, of pollutants which make the water lack potablity. Once the toxic crop is harvested, it can be stored safely, or shipped away on one of the ships bringing in fruit. The old booms could be renovated to allow this kind of large on/off load.
It's heartbreaking to see what was done to such beautiful land, but I believe these kinds of mistakes can be corrected, it wouldn't bring big money, but it could be arranged to bring some, and the land could be made healthy again. Trying to get this idea, especially just the use of fruit waste as a simple tactic to bring back living ground, to someone with ties to the island.

Me too 😃
As a Jacksfilms fan, I've definitely been looking forward to this country. :)
1:56 "it is only the de jure capital..." If something is 'de jure' (in law) then it is official. Since Yaren isn't the official capital, then the words you're looking for is 'de facto' (in practice).
I’d love to come to Nauru and run around this island by 3 hours. ❤️🇳🇷 But it is so hard and expensive to get there 😔
Where there is a will, there is a way.
HAHA
i am so lucky that i have a lot of friends from Nauru (we studied together in college) and they are very friendly and party all the time people. I love them and they make really good music as well.
Fun fact for Pinoy Geograpeeps: The Pacific Star Building at the corner of Makati and Buendia Avenues in Makati was one of Nauru's investments from phosphate revenue.

Love this video from Nauru
Love this channel
0:26
CNN: *BREAKING NEWS*
A Massive Tourist surge has overwhelmed the country of Nauru
Actually Nauru has just as strong ties with New Zealand, and it is viewed as a far more friendly and reasonable country, especially in view of the asylum seeker programme. Given that China is trying to spread/buy influence in the Pacific, it won't be long before it reestablishes ties with China.
Good points, gsf67. The main reason there is no problem with New Zealand on the asylum seekers, is that basically Australia "protects" New Zealand from them ever getting there.
@@frednerk3477 That and the Tasman sea, it utterly amazes me that the Aussies don't faf about with security. Can you believe that NZ considered taking on the Nauru asylum seekers. We are like the "Canada" of the Pacific, whereas the Aussies are like the "US" of the Pacific.
Nauru is one of those small nations that I’m fascinated with. I have their flag in my flag collection, and I like to call it my favorite “ Eight mile isle”. I think that you guys are doing a great job. I do geography for a hobby, and I think more of the younger generations should watch you guys. Love from the United States!🇺🇸
in my geography class we have to take notes on each section in the article and its the highlight of my homework session. Thank you so much for making videos they are really educational and make me laugh :)
At 13.16 there is a mistake. That is not a minister of the government of Nauru. That is Winston Peters who is the current Deputy Prime Minister of New Zealand. He has never been part of Nauru's government. That photo was taken during a meeting concerning Nauru's detention camp but Winston does not represent the Nauru government.

Nooooo I wasn't up to date with your videos!!! I have many Nauruan friends and a couple in the family. All in New Zealand btw
Being that isolated from the rest of the world is actually kind of scary. Imagine a major natural disaster wiping out the airport and still being unable to take a boat out of the country. I just imagine a lot of things going wrong
