  • Republic of Palau Economic Development Plan
    REPUBLIC OF PALAU ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN Fiscal Years 1995‐1999 Volume I: Sector Analysis CHAPTER 1 GEOGRAPHY, HISTORY, AND POLITICAL STRUCTURE 1.1 Geography The Republic of Palau (hereinafter "ROP", "Republic", or "Palau") is comprised of more than 200 islands which form an archipelago in the far western corner of the north Pacific Ocean. Only nine of the islands are inhabited. Palau lies between 2 degrees and 8 degrees north latitude and 131 degrees and 135 degrees east longitude. The islands cover 170.4 square miles of land and include four types of geological formation: volcanic, high limestone, low platform, and coral atoll formations. Babeldaob, the largest island which accounts for four-fifths of total land area, Arakabesang, Malakal, the western part of Koror, and a number of smaller ones are volcanic. The Rock Islands are composed of limestone while Peleliu and Angaur are low platform islands. The Southwest Islands are made of reef flats resulting from geological uplift. Kayangel, located 28 miles north of Babeldaob, is a classic coral atoll. Palau's climate is maritime/tropical, characterized by little seasonal and diurnal variation. The annual mean temperature is 82 degrees Fahrenheit, with an average of 83 degrees in the hottest months and 81 degrees in the coolest months. Diurnal change in temperature is approximately 10 degrees. High rainfall occurs throughout the year which results in over 150 inches of rainfall annually. The heaviest rainfall generally occurs from May to January, peaking in June and July. A slightly drier period extends from February to April. There is relatively high humidity of 82 per cent throughout the year.

  • Historical Dictionary of International Intelligence Second Edition
    The historical dictionaries present essential information on a broad range of subjects, including American and world history, art, business, cities, countries, cultures, customs, film, global conflicts, international relations, literature, music, philosophy, religion, sports, and theater. Written by experts, all contain highly informative introductory essays on the topic and detailed chronologies that, in some cases, cover vast historical time periods but still manage to heavily feature more recent events. Brief A–Z entries describe the main people, events, politics, social issues, institutions, and policies that make the topic unique, and entries are cross- referenced for ease of browsing. Extensive bibliographies are divided into several general subject areas, providing excellent access points for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more. Additionally, maps, pho- tographs, and appendixes of supplemental information aid high school and college students doing term papers or introductory research projects. In short, the historical dictionaries are the perfect starting point for anyone looking to research in these fields.
