List of places in Nauru
The Republic of Nauru originally comprised 169 villages; some of these were already abandoned, uninhabited or destroyed after 1900 . With the increasing population growth, the individual villages merged into a coherent settlement, which is now spread around the entire coastal strip.
The place names come from the book Nauru - Results of the South Sea Expedition by Paul Hambruch , who stayed on the island as part of the Hamburg South Sea Expedition 1908-1910 . The names were rewritten according to the spelling reform of the Nauruan language of 1939 .
