Pacific island Nauru said it will hold a referendum to change its official name, described as a colonial relic from a time when “foreign tongues” mangled the native language.
Lots of interesting stuff for such a small island. I spotted a ruined WW2 Japanese bunker and coastal gun! I also just learned that the island was attacked by the Germans in 1940, which is crazy to me. I didn’t know the German navy was operating that far out in the Pacific ocean.
