The Federated States of Micronesia, or simply Micronesia, is a federation of four island states in Oceania, located in the western Pacific Ocean. The states of Chuuk, Pohnpei, Kosrae, and Yap together comprise 607 islands. The total land area of these islands is about 700 square kilometers, which speaks volumes about their size. Throughout history, these small islands have been conquered, colonized, and annexed multiple times, and they acquired their current federated state form in 1979. Despite being quite remote, these islands retain their rural charm, simple values, and sincerity unspoiled by excessive tourism. If you have the opportunity to visit this island group, you should definitely seize it!
