Favorite country? What are three facts about favorite country?

AJEJWJD

ASHSHAS OMG OMG okay um sorry. um. autism moment.

my favorite country is tuvalu!

fact 1: tuvalu, despite Valu meaning Four in Tuvaluan, is an island nation consisting of nine islands. Tuvalu is most likely the first nation to completely sink due to climate change, with the international community doing little to nothing. if you want to help, go to Tuvalu.tv, and the website will help you from there.

fact 2: there are ca. 13 000 people living in tuvalu, with ca. half of which living on the Funafuti atoll. most of them are English speakers, with tuvalu being a part of the former British colony of the ellice Islands (although that's kinda like calling the US the former 13 colonies), but the main language is Tuvaluan, also known as just Tuvalu.

fact 3: Tuvalu is the country with the least tourists in the world, based on 2021 data. this is likely due to how difficult it is to get there, with it being a country in the middle of the ocean, in the middle of New Zealand and Hawaii. The only planes that go to their singular airport (said airport doubles as a football field) come from Fiji, which is YET ANOTHER island nation!

Bonus fact, because i think this is the funniest shit ever. Basically, after colonization, Tuvalu was kind of low on money, but they still wanted to join the UN. but, with the rise of the internet happening at the time, every country was getting assigned a domain (.se for sweden, .fi for finland, etc). what did Tuvalu get? .tv. so, when different companies (e.g twitch) wanted .tv for their streaming services they have to pay Tuvalu. they used this money to get into the UN. it was honestly dumb luck that they got this domain, but im really happy they did.

edit: sorry, it consists of NINE islands! it's been fixed.

thank you so much for the ask! Tōfa!

Her Majesty was Head of State for a population of 144 million across the UK and the Commonwealth Realms. During her reign, she visited every realm and every region of the UK, returning to some many times over.

Though much of Her Majesty’s daily working life was spent in contact with her UK and Commonwealth ministers and representatives, it was her presence in these places during her many official visits which saw her keep her promise to devote her life to the people of the Commonwealth in the most practical of ways. The Queen’s visits took her from the Scottish Highlands to the Isles of Scilly, Ottawa to Funafuti, meeting people from all walks of life.

Her Majesty’s Jubilee tours in particular demonstrated The Queen’s commitment to the people of every region and realm. To mark her Golden Jubilee in 2002, Her Majesty visited 70 cities and towns in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, travelling 3,500 miles by Royal Train. She also circumnavigated the globe that year, beginning her Jubilee programme with visits to Jamaica, New Zealand and Australia.

The Queen’s presence continues to be felt in the everyday fabric of the countries where she was Head of State: over 50 parks and towns, 40 buildings, 28 hospitals, 40 roads and bridges, 30 schools across the UK, Commonwealth, and the rest of the world have been named after her, and at least 35 countries have issued coins bearing her image.

BACKGROUND;

TW: n/a. ● Nixie's parents met unexpectedly on a ship that her mother was traveling on and her father was working on. It was love at first sight and within four months they were married and Nixie's birth followed an additional seven months later. ● Due to her parents work, they never truly had a set home. Instead, she spent her childhood traveling on ships or boats and visiting exotic and beautiful locations, staying in everything from hostels to hotels and rented out rooms. ● Their education came mostly in the form of homeschooling and lessons taught both by their mother and the various women who helped raise and shape them throughout their childhood, most of their knowledge (and the things that piqued their interest) not coming from the things found in a textbook or classroom. ● It was throughout their travels that they became increasingly aware of the impact of global warming, particularly on the places that they loved to much, and in hopes to make a more impactful change going forward, they enrolled in Ogden. ● They definitely do care about their education and being able to help, but being as wild as they are, Nixie struggles with actually attending classes and staying on top of their assignments, something she too often has to be reminded about.

BIOGRAPHY;

TW: n/a. It had to have been fate that allowed their paths to cross, no coincidence that the ship she wasn’t have meant to have been on broke down while in his zone, that she’d wandered out of her room and into directly into him. It was love at first sight, two people destined for each other, a romance that others might try to simplify but the Linghui’s refuse to view it so plainly. It took a mere four months before they were tying the knot, a wedding some called shotgun soon after the fact, but the child growing inside of Carley was unbeknownst to them at the time, a welcome surprise when that beautiful baby arrived seven months later. To say that Nixie's upbringing was unorthodox would still be managing to down play it. She may have been born in Funafuti but it was never home, pulled to the seas before she was even a year old. In fact, home wasn't a word that they identified in the traditional sense — home was people, it was a feeling, no set place that ever been able to hold them. Nixie spent their time drifting; beaches and islands, boats and ships, oceans and villages that so few people got to experience. There was a plethora of time spent under the watchful eye of local women, incredible elders from varying backgrounds who’d lived and seen so much more than her, who shared their wisdom and stories and helped shape her. Of course, home schooling was mandatory, even with no singular home it was important she learn — and although they passed, it was no easy task, mind drifting and focus elsewhere, always feeling they could experience and learn more from the world around them than any book. While the past two decades have allowed them to experience beautiful and exotic places, they've also forced them to be witness to the suffering of the world — particularly of small islands, populations that have lived there for centuries and are often putting the least strain on the environment, remaining most affected by it. It’s why she’s journeyed to Ogden, the stillest she’s ever been and for the longest extent of time, leaving her skin itching for change. Nixie wants to learn and help the places and people that have come to be so important to her, but don’t be surprised if you find her arriving to class late or not at all, wandering the hiking trails while the skies are dark or laying on the water for so long people begin to worry she’s merely a body.

EXPAND ON HOW THEY EMBODY THEIR SKELETON TROPE;

For perhaps anyone who's appreciated an iteration of Hamlet, the visual is clear — long, disheveled hair and bare feet, clad in a dress and often pictured amidst flowers and water. It's not just the visual of her that takes people's mind to that place, however. They display the same childlike naivety, as if entirely unaware of the harsh realities of the word, a mind that it seems has taken a step away from the real world while at the same instant, holds gently onto secrets that no one else may ever may be privy to the knowledge of. At times it's unclear if Nixie is plagued by an invisible illness or merely not of this world, questions that her unwillingness to answer acts to make her all the more bewitching.

RELATIONSHIP TO GREER;

Their first encounter was unexpected and the ones that followed were even more so. Nixie was an almost impossible person to pin down, floating around with her parents like a piece of drift wood lost to the sea. It was thanks to the beautiful locations that their work took them that she was privy to many experiences most her age were not so lucky to enjoy. The couple may not have been able to afford the luxury of the vacation homes and resorts that the Morrison family could, but the ocean and it's mainland were things trickier to lay claim upon. The same beach at the same time, together and yet somehow worlds apart — though to an outside eye, it seemed the pair were either unaware or unaffected by that reality.

“Every day my country is losing ground physically and literally,” said Tuvalu’s Minister for Public Utilities and Environment, Honourable Ampelosa Manoa Tehulu, who is also Chairing the meeting. “The reality is that they are talking about digital nations for our people. Can you imagine that? I am sitting in this meeting thinking about this reality. We are scared but not afraid. Today, I want us to have a meaningful discussion about this reality.”

On the ground in Funafuti, the metaverse project is yet to gain traction, with many locals the ABC spoke to unaware of the details.      

In vast areas of the country, such as its outer islands, mobile access is limited and internet access is still patchy — an area the government says it is investing in.

For father-of-two Hawaii Paeniu, the project sends the wrong message.  

“It’s like people or leaders are already losing hope, but here we are still fighting and trying to reclaim land to prevent Tuvalu from sinking,” he said.

Paeniu’s family has lived in Tuvalu for 10 generations.

As a child growing up on Funafuti, he would play in the king tide with his friends, the ocean water lapping up to their knees.

“We didn’t realise how serious it was until we grew up,” he said.

Now an official within the Ministry of Health, he said he would do anything to keep his family safe and happy — including leaving his ancestral home.

But, he said, that would be their “last option”.

And even though he did not support the idea of “giving up” on Tuvalu, Paeniu accepted the digital nation could provide some sort of long-term identity for future generations. 

“If that’s what’s really going to happen, [the digital nation] will bring back good old memories of Tuvalu, especially for my kids to know and learn the culture and tradition,” he said.

“But I think world leaders really do need to picture themselves in our shoes, so they can feel and know what we are experiencing, the reality of what’s happening here in my home country. 

“We are humans, we are alive and are still fighting against climate change, we need actions to be implemented right away for the future of my country.”

“This is what I call paradise, and to leave my island and my culture and my people and my food — it’s not [going to happen].”

Tineiafi Pedro has seen the changes in her country — these days she’s unable to plant crops in her garden due to soil salinity.

She accepted the metaverse project might be necessary for future generations, but as a “Christian lady” it was hard for her to comprehend.   

“To make another island so that we can visit on internet — no, I don’t agree with that,” she said. 

“I strongly believe in God, [and] that Tuvalu will not sink.

“He will not leave us to swim on our own.”

In a nation such as Tuvalu, where 97 percent of the population are Christian, faith in divine intervention is common.

Like Pedro, many believe Tuvalu’s collective faith will guide it through.

Lily Teafa, the 28-year-old, who works with a youth-led organisation on climate change projects such as coral restoration in the tiny Pacific nation, Tuvalu, says signs of her homeland slipping away are everywhere. “Whenever we go for a picnic, especially at the northern and southern ends of this beautiful island, we always notice that a piece of land has been washed away by the sea.” Tuvalu is expected to be one of the first countries in the world to be completely lost to climate change. The three coral islands and six atolls that make up the country have a total land mass of less than 26 sq km. At current rates of sea level rise, some estimates suggest that half the land area of the capital, Funafuti, will be flooded by tidal waters within three decades. By 2100, 95% of land will be flooded by periodic king tides, making it essentially uninhabitable.

Tuvalu, in the South Pacific, is an independent island nation within the British Commonwealth. Its 9 islands comprise small, thinly populated atolls and reef islands with palm-fringed beaches and WWII sites. Off Funafuti, the capital, the Funafuti Conservation Area offers calm waters for diving and snorkelling among sea turtles and tropical fish, plus several uninhabited islets sheltering sea birds.
