Did You Know?
Nauru's phosphate deposits made it, per capita, one of the richest countries in the world in the 1970s. Mining stripped roughly 80% of the island's surface, and when the phosphate ran out the money went with it.
The clock: Yaren keeps UTC+12. Nauru has no official capital; Yaren is where the government offices happen to be, on an island of 21 square kilometres.
