About Tuvalu
Tuvalu is one of the smallest and most remote nations on Earth, a chain of nine low-lying coral atolls and reef islands strung across the central Pacific. Government sits at Funafuti, where the airstrip doubles as a public gathering space between flights. Formerly the Ellice Islands under British rule, Tuvalu's name means 'eight standing together', honouring the eight islands traditionally inhabited.
- Tuvalu earns significant national income by licensing its internet country code, the coveted '.tv' domain.
- Tuvalu's highest natural point stands less than five metres above sea level, making it one of the lowest-lying countries on Earth.
- With about 26 square kilometres of land, Tuvalu is the fourth-smallest country in the world by area.
