The history of Micronesia. Micronesia documentary. World Of Knowledge
Micronesia is a subregion of Oceania, comprising thousands of small islands in the western Pacific Ocean.
It has a close shared cultural history with three other island regions—the Philippines to the west, Polynesia to the east, and Melanesia to the south—as well as with the wider community of Austronesian peoples.
The region has a tropical marine climate and is part of the Oceanian realm.
It includes four main archipelagos—the Caroline Islands, the Gilbert Islands, the Mariana Islands, and the Marshall Islands—as well as numerous islands that are not part of any archipelago.
Political control of areas within Micronesia varies depending on the island, and is distributed among six sovereign nations.
Some of the Caroline Islands are part of the Republic of Palau and some are part of the Federated States of Micronesia .
The Gilbert Islands comprise the Republic of Kiribati.
The Mariana Islands are affiliated with the United States; some of them belong to the U.S.
Territory of Guam and the rest belong to the U.S.
Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands.
The island of Nauru is its own sovereign nation.
The Marshall Islands all belong to the Republic of the Marshall Islands.

Micronesia | Yap | Betel Nut Heaven
Yap is around 400 kilometers north of Palau. It is barely untouched and is highly traditional.
Betel Nut has a long history in the Pacific Islands, its use can be traced back as far as 2,000 years.
Betel Nut chewing and its customary red smile amongst the population is a common sight in Yap.
Many people chew betel nut for the energy it produces. This is likely due to the nut's natural alkaloids, which releases adrenaline. Its commonly chewed after being ground up or sliced or wrapped in leaves of the Piper Belle vine that has been coated with lime.
It is one of the most popular psychoactive substances in the world.

GUAM Micronesian island - History & Culture
#guam #colony
In addition to its inviting beaches, elegant hotels, and great bargains, Guam has another vital attraction- its unique culture. The traditions and customs of Guam's proud island heritage thrive, despite invading conquerors, wars and epidemics, and changing governments. Forged from a neolithic foundation and molded by historical events, Guam's living culture has expanded into a vibrant, modern way of life.
Since the 17th century, Catholic churches have been the center of village activities. Even today, every village has its patron saint whose feast day is celebrated with an elaborate fiesta, which the entire island is invited to attend. Family groups still hold christening parties, fandangos (weddings, novenas, funerals, and death- anniversary rosaries). All are flavored by the rich Spanish heritage.
Spanish influence may also be seen in the mestiza, a style of women's clothing, or, in the architecture of Guam's southern villages.
Countless Americans, Europeans, Asians, Micronesians, and other visitors have left their imprints on the island's pastimes and tastes, but nowhere is the island's multi-cultural influence more evident than in its food.
At a fiesta or other island party, families prepare heavily laden tables of local delicacies, such as red rice, shrimp patties, a Filipino style noodle dish called pancit, barbecued ribs and chicken, and taro leaves cooked in coconut milk. Another mouth-watering treat is kelaguen, usually prepared from chopped broiled chicken, lemon juice, grated coconut, and hot peppers. Fiery finadene sauce, made with soy sauce, lemon juice or vinegar, hot peppers, and onions, is sprinkled over the food for a truly memorable dish. After a hearty meal, Chamorros often enjoy chewing pugua (betel nut), mixed with powdered lime and wrapped in pepper leaf.

Palau is an island paradise standing up to the world
The tiny island of Palau is a remote, beautiful paradise and the rest of the world knows it. But existing in a connected world can put extreme stress on small countries. The nation of just 20,000 people has seen an influx of tourists recently, but that hasn’t necessarily been a good thing.
But visitors arriving by the tens of thousands from such behemoths as Japan, South Korea, and China, put considerable stress on Palau’s environment and economy.
Quartz News travels far into the Pacific to find out how the island nation of Palau is standing up for itself against the world’s superpowers.
