Nauru national report

Estimates vary but Nauru has probably been occupied for at least 3000 years. Although the people are considered Micronesians. the island was probably discovered by different ethnic groups at different times - there are indications of both Melanesian and Polynesian influences - and their descendents combined to form today's ethnic Nauruans. The language of Nauru is unique and gives few hints of its origins. Traditional Nauru society
is matrilineal and is based on 12 tribal grouping.

据估计，瑙鲁或许已被占据至少3000年。尽管当地居民被视为密克罗尼西亚人，但该岛可能在不同时期被不同的族群发现——既有美拉尼西亚人也有波利尼西亚人的影响迹象——其后裔融合形成了今日的瑙鲁民族。瑙鲁语独具特色，对其起源的线索寥寥无几。传统的瑙鲁社会为母系社会，以12个部落群体为基础。资源可在网上获取。
