News from Aaron: The government of the Republic of Nauru recently posted an announcement on social media saying that the country's name has been officially changed from “Nauru” to “Naoero.” The United Nations has received the relevant notice from Nauru and made changes to its official website, involving languages such as English and French, but the country's Chinese name “Nauru” remains unchanged. The announcement said that Nauru President Adion said in a speech in Parliament on July 20 that after extensive discussions, he decided to restore the country's traditional name “Naoero” and not hold a referendum on the matter. Adion said that the new name of the country is the identity of the people. It has already appeared on the national emblem and is permitted by the Constitution. This decision has nothing to do with politics; it is about identity and historical heritage. The announcement also said that Nauru has officially issued a name change notice to international organizations and countries around the world. In May of this year, Nauru's parliament passed a constitutional amendment to change the country's name. At the time, the Nauru government stated that the amendment still needed to be passed through a referendum. Nauru is located in the Central Pacific Ocean and consists of an independent coral reef island and surrounding waters. The country has a land area of 21.1 square kilometers and a population of about 13,000 people. English is the official language, and the common Nauruan language is used.
