TOKELAU Top 2 Tourist Places - Tokelau, Oceania

map of Tokelau

Tokelau (/ˈtoʊkəlaʊ/; lit. 'north-northeast' or 'north wind'; known previously as the Union Islands, and, until 1976, known officially as the Tokelau Islands) is a dependent territory of New Zealand in the southern Pacific Ocean. It consists of three tropical coral atolls: Atafu, Nukunonu, and Fakaofo. They have a combined land area of 10 km2 (4 sq mi). The capital rotates yearly among the three atolls. In addition to these three, Swains Island, which forms part of the same archipelago, is the subject of an ongoing territorial dispute; it is currently administered by the United States as part of American Samoa. Tokelau lies north of the Samoan Islands, east of Tuvalu, south of the Phoenix Islands, southwest of the more distant Line Islands, and northwest of the Cook Islands.

Tokelau has a population of approximately 1,500 people; it has the fourth-smallest population of any sovereign state or dependency in the world. As of the 2016 census, around 45% of its residents had been born overseas, mostly in Samoa or New Zealand. The populace has a life expectancy of 69, which is comparable to that of other Oceanian island nations. Approximately 94% of the population speak Tokelauan as their first language. Tokelau has the smallest economy of any sovereign nation, although it is a leader in renewable energy, being the first 100% solar powered nation in the world.

Tokelau is officially referred to as a nation by both the New Zealand government and the Tokelauan government. It is a free and democratic nation with elections every three years. However, in 2007, the United Nations General Assembly included Tokelau on its list of non-self-governing territories. Its inclusion on this list is controversial, as Tokelauans have twice narrowly voted against further self-determination, and the islands' small population makes the viability of self-government challenging. The basis of Tokelau's legislative, administrative and judicial systems is the Tokelau Islands Act 1948, which has been amended on a number of occasions. Since 1993, the territory has annually elected its own head of government, the Ulu-o-Tokelau. Before 1993, the administrator of Tokelau was the highest official in the government and the territory was directly administered by a New Zealand government department. Tokelau includes three atolls in the South Pacific Ocean between longitudes 171° and 173° W and between latitudes 8° and 10° S, about midway between Hawaii and New Zealand. From Atafu in the north to Fakaofo in the south, Tokelau extends for less than 200 km. The atolls lie about 500 kilometres (311 miles) north of Samoa. The atolls are Atafu, Nukunonu, both in a group of islands once called the Duke of Clarence Group, and Fakaofo, once Bowditch Island. Their combined land area is 10.8 km2 (4.2 sq mi). The atolls each have a number of coral islands, where the villages are situated. The highest point of Tokelau is just 5 metres (16 feet) above sea level. There are no ports or harbours for large vessels, however, all three atolls have a jetty to and from which supplies and passengers are shipped. Tokelau lies in the Pacific tropical cyclone belt. A fourth island that is culturally, historically, and geographically, but not politically, part of the Tokelau chain is Swains Island (Olohega), under United States control since about 1900 and administered as part of American Samoa since 1925.

Swains Island was claimed by the United States pursuant to the Guano Islands Act, as were the other three islands of Tokelau; the latter three claims were ceded to Tokelau by treaty in 1979. In the draft constitution of Tokelau subject to the Tokelauan self-determination referendum in 2006, Olohega (Swains Island) was also claimed as a part of Tokelau, though the claim was surrendered in the same 1979 treaty. This established a clearly defined boundary between American Samoa and Tokelau.

Tokelau's claim to Swains is generally comparable to the Marshall Islands' claim to US-administered Wake Island, but the re-emergence of this somewhat dormant issue has been an unintended result of the United Nations' recent efforts to promote decolonisation in Tokelau. Tokelauans have proved somewhat reluctant to push their national identity in the political realm: recent decolonisation moves have mainly been driven from outside for ideological reasons. But at the same time, Tokelauans are reluctant to disown their common cultural identity with Swains Islanders who speak their language. mapa de Tokelau

Tokelau - there is such a country

Tokelau (north wind, second name - Union Islands), island possession of New Zealand in the central part of Oceania. It is washed by the waters of the Pacific Ocean. It includes 3 small atolls (Fakaofo, Nukunonu, Aiafu) in the form of an arc 480 km to the north of the Samoan archipelago. All atolls have a classic shape - a ring of small coral islets (no more than 200 m wide) around the central lagoon with a thin layer of barren soil. These islets are the above-water tops of the underwater coral reefs. The atolls are low (no higher than 5 m). The surface of the islets is composed of coral debris. The total land area is 12.2 sq. km.

Getting to Tokelau, the most remote country on earth | Tokelau stories part 1

Getting to Tokelau is not easy, the country doesn't have an airport so you have to jump through a few hoops to get there. In this video Sam and Andrew travel from New Caledonia through Apia, Samoa to the country of Tokelau, one of the smallest, most remote and most special countries on earth. Unless you like 60 hour boat rides and the fast and the furious 6, then this vid is probably the best way to experience what we went through to get to this amazing country. Why do it yourself when we edited it all down into a 7 minute clip?

This is the first part of a series of videos showing how to get to Tokelau, the popping and fly fishing there, and what life is like on the island.

If you like it, let us know and we'll film more videos like this from other amazing places in the Pacific.

saludos mis amigos. Este es un mapa de Tokelau. Tokelau, conocida anteriormente como Islas de la Unión y, hasta 1976, conocida oficialmente como Islas Tokelau, es un territorio dependiente de Nueva Zelanda en el Océano Pacífico sur. Está formado por tres atolones de coral tropicales: Atafu, Nukunonu y Fakaofo. Tienen una superficie terrestre combinada de 10 km2. La capital rota anualmente entre los tres atolones. Además de estas tres, la isla Swains, que forma parte del mismo archipiélago, es objeto de una disputa territorial en curso; Actualmente es administrado por los Estados Unidos como parte de Samoa Americana. Tokelau se encuentra al norte de las islas de Samoa, al este de Tuvalu, al sur de las islas Fénix, al suroeste de las islas Line más distantes y al noroeste de las islas Cook.
Tokelau incluye tres atolones en el Océano Pacífico Sur, aproximadamente a medio camino entre Hawaii y Nueva Zelanda. Desde Atafu en el norte hasta Fakaofo en el sur, Tokelau se extiende por menos de 200 km. Los atolones se encuentran a unos 500 kilómetros al norte de Samoa. Los atolones son Atafu y Nukunonu, ambos en un grupo de islas que alguna vez se llamó Grupo Duque de Clarence, y Fakaofo, una vez Isla Bowditch. Su superficie terrestre combinada es de 10,8 km2. Cada uno de los atolones tiene varias islas de coral, donde se encuentran las aldeas. El punto más alto de Tokelau está a sólo 5 metros sobre el nivel del mar. No hay puertos ni puertos para embarcaciones grandes; sin embargo, los tres atolones tienen un embarcadero hacia y desde donde se envían suministros y pasajeros. Tokelau se encuentra en el cinturón de ciclones tropicales del Pacífico. Una cuarta isla que cultural, histórica y geográficamente, pero no políticamente, forma parte de las islas Tokelau es la isla Swains o (Olohega), bajo control de los Estados Unidos desde aproximadamente 1900 y administrada como parte de Samoa Americana desde 1925. Eso es todo. por ahora. Gracias por su atención. por favor comente y suscríbase para obtener los mejores mapas. Adiós.

Diese Insel versorgt sich komplett selbst - Tokelau | Earth Stories Deutschland

Diese Doku macht einen Ausflug auf die drei Atolle Tokelau, und stellt die dortigen Menschen vor. Vor einem Jahrzehnt wurde mit Dieselgeneratoren nur ein paar Stunden am Tag Strom erzeugt. Mittlerweile sind auf allen drei Atollen Sonnenkollektoren installiert worden, wodurch alle Haushalte durchgehend Strom haben.

Abonniere unseren Channel, um kein Video mehr zu verpassen:

In dieser Doku wird erkundet, wie sich das Leben seitdem verändert hat. Tokelau ist dank seiner Sonnenenergie nicht nur autark, sondern auch klimaneutral. Trotzdem kämpft dieses kleine Land gegen die Auswirkungen des Klimawandels, da Stürme schnell das ganze Land zerstören können.
