Living in Micronesia
Made up of the four states of Yap, Chuuk, Pohnpei and Kosrae, the state of Micronesia is a sovereign island nation spread across the western part of the Pacific Ocean, comprising of around 607 islands in total. Just north of the equator they spread across a longitudinal distance of 2700 kilometres, but as an area they cover only 702 square kilometres, making it 177th in the world in terms of land area. The population is nearly 100% made up of the Pacific Islander and Asian ethnolinguistic groups, but there is a growing expatriate population of Americans, Australians and Europeans amongst others, meaning he common language for government and education has become English, with some local languages still used outside the main towns. Centuries old traditions still remain across the four states, but they vary between each; Yap is known for its stone money, pieces made of calcite that can measure from 3.5 centimetres up to 4 metres and there are around 6500 scattered around the island. The islands also are home to a UNESCO World Heritage Site, an archaeological site known as Nan Madol, an ancient city up until 1628, but it is now in danger due to environmental issues. The economy is based mainly on subsistence farming and fishing, but the nation is highly dependent on US financial assistance because it is so isolated and poorly developed in its infrastructure.
