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!

I think Nauruan is the only nationality that is a palindrome (same forwards and backwards).

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 ❤️❤️

[thegoodlydragon]

They don't need a capital. There's no point since the entire country is small enough to be a single city anyway.

[TheHubu]

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! 😳😳

[therock]

The smaller countries are far more interesting to watch 👍

Flag Friday: "Nauru's flag represents where it is. The end."

Funnily enough, in Finnish, ”Nauru” means ”laughter”.

[KamilHenri]

I’ve been waiting for this country to be covered. It deserves more attention, but at the same time, I love it being so unknown. This is probably the most attention it’s ever got

9:10 *Ken irons his shoe inside the dark closet* This is totally normal.

Monaco: my income is from all the people visiting
Vatican: Oh me I just pray
Nauru: my main income comes from bird poop

[CompactStar]

I’m surprised how many Nauruans have commented on this video 🇳🇷

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.

After this vid, Nauru's tourim will increase with 85 procent

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.

Nauru looks cool! It deserves more visitors! Love from Chile 🇨🇱! 🇳🇷

[deetmapping]

There are more likes on this video then there are actual people in Nauru!

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.

FUN FACT:

In Finnish "nauru" means laughter!

I'm glad Ken got to iron his shoe.
