Rebublic of Kiribati (white areas on map)

The Republic of Kiribati is an island nation located in the central tropical Pacific Ocean. The country's 33 atolls are scattered over 3,500,000 km² near the equator. Its name is pronounced /kiribas/ and is a Gilbertese transliteration of "Gilberts", the English name for the main group of islands: the former Gilbert Islands.

The official language spoken is English and Gilbertese.

All islands east of the 180° within the Rebublic of Kiribati observe the same date west of the 180° even though they are positioned on opposite sides of the International Date Line.
