Talk:Tarawa Atoll

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bairiki is just one of many islets on the atoll of Tarawa. Tarawa is the capital of Kiribati, although the admninistrative offices (and in a sense, therefore, the capitol "city") is Bairiki. Anyway, this article is about Tarawa, and not just Bairiki - Marshman 21:02, 20 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Plusminus right: Tarawa is an atoll which consists of several (min. 24) islets. One of these islands is Bairiki. On this little island lies the village of Bairiki (the only town of this island), and that's the national capital of Kiribati. There are bigger towns on Tarawa. Belgian man 18:03, 11 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Not exactly: the capitol is precisely South Tarawa (TUC), because nor Tarawa nor Bairiki are correct administrative divisions. Enzino 20:36, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
