iWon Travel Oceania Kiribati Powered by HISTORY and CULTURE History Culture History Spanish explorer de Quiros' hectic Pacific schedule brought him to Butaritari in 1606, and he named it Buen Viaje A particularly dirty piece of colonial high jinks took place on 8 April 1841, when 80 officers and enlisted men from the USS Peacock let themselves loose on Utiroa village, Tabiteuea Island. They believed the locals had killed one of their number the day before and, in the best traditions of the Seventh Cavalry, they burned 300 houses and left the community meeting house, or maneaba , 'entirely in ashes' as punishment. The 'official' figure of islander dead was only 12, but the commander, presumably pleased with his day's work, described their effort as a 'salutary lesson'. It's not clear from the record whether the islanders learned their lesson and suddenly started liking the invaders. More Europeans started dropping by, and all the islands had made it onto European charts by 1826. The famous Russian hydrographer Krusenstern named the Gilbert Islands in the 1820s, and from then till the 1870s British and American whalers hunting sperm whales were the most frequent visitors. There was a little give and take: some seamen deserted and spent their days dancing under coconut trees, and some of the islanders traded places for a life of scurvy, seasickness and spilled sperm whale gizzards on the high seas. Coconut oil and then copra became the main items of trade later in the century, along with 'blackbirding' - kidnapping into slavery by Peruvian, British, Australian and other slave ships. Most of the islanders spirited off were put to work in Fiji, Samoa, Tahiti, Hawaii and Central America.

From Lonely Planet Lonely Planet guide to Kiribati and the world Order Now Kiribati Culture Canoe racing, volleyball and soccer are all popular on the islands, but more traditional pursuits, such as intricate and beautiful dances - particularly on Tabiteuea - an indigenous martial art and making figures out of string are still practised. Also important in Kiribati are chants for one to four voices that honour particular achievements, such as initiation rites. The chants are not normally accompanied by dance. The I-Kiribati (as locals are known, pronounced 'ee-kee-ree-bus') speak a Micronesian dialect, although English is widely used in official communications. The local alphabet has only 13 letters, with 'ti' standing in for 's'. The missionaries got their talons in early, and the Kiribati Protestant Church today has over 28,000 followers and the Catholic Church close to 40,000. Religion is taken very seriously, and the further south you go the more you should avoid doing anything that looks remotely like work (even darning your beach towel could be frowned upon). Traditional customs and beliefs still survive, which is not surprising for a people who have lived so closely to a force as mysterious as the sea for so long. Belief in the power of magic and the existence of ghosts ( anti ) is widespread, and small shrines are common in the bush. The clan is the basic building block of society, and authority throughout the islands is invested in the

[Print Friendly Version] Kiribati Country Reports on Human Rights Practices Released by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor February 23, 2001 Kiribati is a constitutional republic with a popularly elected president and a legislative assembly, 40 members of which are elected by universal adult suffrage, and 2 of whom are members by virtue of their office. The country has a population of 87,000, which occupies 33 small islands widely scattered across 1.365 million square miles of the central Pacific. The population is primarily Micronesian, with a significant component of Polynesian origin. The judiciary is independent. A police force of about 250 personnel is controlled effectively by civilian authority. Economic activity consists primarily of subsistence agriculture and fishing. The islands' isolation and meager resources, including poor soil and limited arable land, severely limit prospects for economic development. The Government generally respected citizens' human rights; however, in the traditional culture, women occupy a subordinate role and have limited job opportunities.
