Extractions: Home The Mission Nauru and the UN Foreign Affairs ... About Nauru Political Profile Source: From Michael R. Ogden, Ph.D. of the University of Hawaii (forthcoming in the World Encyclopedia of Political Systems , 3rd Edition. New York: Facts on File.). Some data were edited to reflect current information. N auru is an island republic of approximately 12,000 people in the western Pacific Ocean some 1,200 miles northeast of Papua New Guinea and one of the worlds smallest states. Until it was granted self-government in 1966 and full independence on January 31, 1968, Nauru was a United Nations trust territory administered by Australia on behalf of its fellow trust powers, New Zealand and Great Britain. It is an associate member of the Commonwealth, belongs to several U.N. agencies, and maintains an extensive consular network. Phosphate-rich Nauru has one of the highest per capita incomes in the world, yet prospects for onshore development after the phosphate is mined out are poor. The Nauruans look to their government for wise management of the country's assets to secure their autonomy, way of life and livelihood in an uncertain future. Nauru's constitution adopted on January 29, 1968, and amended on May 17, 1968 established it as a republic with a parliamentary system of government.
