It comprises approximately 607 islands with c. 700 square kilometers of area in the Western Pacific Ocean spread over almost 2,700 km (1,678 mi) longitudinally just north of the equator some 4,000 km (2,485 mi) southwest of the main islands of Hawaii and about 2,900 km (1,802 mi) north of eastern Australia, lying northeast of New Guinea, south of Guam and the Marianas, west of Nauru and the Marshalls, and east of Palau and the Philippines.
