Republic of the Marshall Islands


Yokwe! You have reached the Republic of the Marshall Islands...


The Republic of the Marshall Islands consists of two chains of 29 coral atolls and five low islands stretching several hundred miles from north to south with a total land area of 70 square miles and a population of 73,630 (est. 2002). The republic, formerly a Trust Territory, entered into a Compact of Free Association with the United States in October 1986. One mainstay of the economy is the U.S. space tracking station on Kwajalein, but the Marshalls are also developing their agriculture and marine resources.
