Sprinkled amidst the Central Pacific, Nauru is the third-smallest independent nation globally, encapsulated within an intimate 21 square kilometres. Its rich history traces back to settlers from Micronesia around 1000 BCE, leading to diverse influences from the German Empire, Japanese occupation during World War II, and administration under Australia, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom post-war.

Nauru's unique geography, enveloped by a coral reef yet limited in natural freshwater, has shaped its life and industry. Intriguingly, the island's notable phosphate deposits were extensively mined for over a century, causing severe environmental damage and extinction of many species. Post-depletion of these reservoirs, Nauru ventured as a tax haven and money-laundering centre. Lately, the island has leaned heavily on Australian aid, in exchange for hosting an offshore immigration detention facility. This distinct background harmonises with Nauru's fascinating European contact history, bringing an intriguing blend of cultural experiences for every tourist.
