> POHNPEI
>
> Pohnpei Island is situated at 6 deg 59' North and 158 deg 21' East in the
> Western Pacific Ocean, West of the Marshall islands, 4000 km South of
Hawaii
> and 3600 km North of Australia. Pohnpei in the past Ponape is one of four
> states (besides Kosrae, Chuuk and Yap) which constitute The Federated
> States of Micronesia.
>
> Pohnpei is the biggest island and also the economical centre and seat of
the
> government. It has the shape of a circus tent. In its centre there are
some
> volcanoes, the Nahnalaud which is 790m high and most of the time hidden by
> clouds is the highest elevation of the federation. The whole island is
> covered with tropical rain forests.
>
> Pohnpei was populated around 500 B.C. The oldest buildings are the huge
> ruins of Nan Madol built in the 13th century. The Spanish originally
claimed
> the island from 1850-1899 and built the Spanish Wall. Then Germany gained
> control, but lost its claim after WW I to Japan leaving behind the German
> Mission Bell Tower in Kolonia and the two cemeteries where lie the remains
> of Germans and Pohnpeians from the Sokehs kingdom who died in a 1910
> uprising against the German seamen.
>
> Not everybody likes the so called Sakau, a local narcotic which is very
> similar to the kava in Fiji or Vanuatu. Sakau is made of roots of a pepper
> shrub pounded into a fibrous pulp which is dampened before being strained
> through the shredded hibiscus bark. It contains up to 14 naturally
occurring
> painkillers which, unlike alcohol, sedate the drinker, making the ritual
of
> consumption a quietly social act. Equally social is the group effort while
> making sakau and the formal rituals involved strongly reinforce both
> traditional values, and the bonds of community.
