Holidays & Observances in Nauru
Nauru is an island country in the South Pacific. Throughout its history, the island has been taken over and owned by several different countries, most recently Australia. Australia still has lots of influence over Nauru, and much of the indigenous culture the people once celebrated has now been replaced by western influences. There are small populations of most of the Asian religions in Nauru, but Christianity predominates. Its holidays are widely celebrated.
