Each of the four states that compose the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) -- Chuuk, Kosrae, Pohnpei, and Yap -- has its own unique history and cultural traditions. The first humans arrived in what is now the FSM in the second millennium B.C. In the 800s A.D., construction of the artificial islets at the Nan Madol complex in Pohnpei began, with the main architecture being built around 1200. At its height, Nan Madol united the approximately 25,000 people of Pohnpei under the Saudeleur Dynasty. By 1250, Kosrae was united in a kingdom centered in Leluh. Yap’s society became strictly hierarchical, with chiefs receiving tributes from islands up to 1,100 km (700 mi) away. Widespread human settlement in Chuuk began in the 1300s, and the different islands in the Chuuk Lagoon were frequently at war with one another.

Portuguese and Spanish explorers visited a few of the islands in the 1500s, and Spain began exerting nominal, but not day-to-day, control over some of the islands -- which they named the Caroline Islands -- in the 1600s. In 1899, Spain sold all of the FSM to Germany. Japan seized the islands in 1914 and was granted a League of Nations mandate to administer them in 1920. The Japanese navy built bases across most of the islands and headquartered their Pacific naval operations in Chuuk. The US bombed Chuuk in 1944 but largely bypassed the other islands in its leapfrog campaign across the Pacific. 

In 1947, the FSM came under US administration as part of the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, which comprised six districts: Chuuk, the Marshall Islands, the Northern Mariana Islands, Palau, Pohnpei, and Yap; Kosrae was separated from Pohnpei into a separate district in 1977. In 1979, Chuuk, Kosrae, Pohnpei, and Yap ratified the FSM Constitution and declared independence while the other three districts opted to pursue separate political status. There are significant inter-island rivalries stemming from their different histories and cultures. Chuuk, the most populous but poorest state, has pushed for secession, but an independence referendum has been repeatedly postponed.

Each of the four states that compose the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) -- Chuuk, Kosrae, Pohnpei, and Yap -- has its own unique history and cultural traditions. The first humans arrived in what is now the FSM in the second millennium B.C. In the 800s A.D., construction of the artificial islets at the Nan Madol complex in Pohnpei began, with the main architecture being built around 1200. At its height, Nan Madol united the approximately 25,000 people of Pohnpei under the Saudeleur Dynasty. By 1250, Kosrae was united in a kingdom centered in Leluh. Yap’s society became strictly hierarchical, with chiefs receiving tributes from islands up to 1,100 km (700 mi) away.

During this period, Dai Viet expanded southward to the Central Highlands and Mekong Delta, reaching the approximate boundaries of modern-day Vietnam by the 1750s. Dai Viet suffered additional civil war and division in the latter half of the 18th century, but it was reunited and renamed Vietnam under Emperor NGUYEN Phuc Anh (aka Gia Long) in 1802.

France began its conquest of Vietnam in 1858 and made Vietnam part of French Indochina in 1887.

US combat forces were withdrawn following a cease-fire agreement in 1973. Two years later, North Vietnamese forces overran the South, reuniting the country under communist rule. The conflict, known as the Second Indochina War (1955-1975), caused more than 58,000 US combat and non-combat deaths and created deep domestic divisions in the US. It also devastated Vietnam, spilled over into the neighboring countries of Cambodia and Laos, and is estimated to have resulted in the deaths of up to 3 million Vietnamese civilians and soldiers.

the EUSPA is responsible for the operational management of the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS) and Galileo satellite navigation programs; the EU space strategy includes encouraging investment in and the use of space services and data, fostering competition and innovation, developing space technologies, and reinforcing Europe’s autonomy in accessing space (2025)", "note": "note: further details about the key activities, programs, and milestones of the country’s space program, as well as government spending estimates on the space sector, appear in the Space Programs reference guide" } }, diff --git a/europe/ei.json b/europe/ei.json index 6c2dd7d6..2eb4fb85 100644 --- a/europe/ei.json +++ b/europe/ei.json @@ -242,27 +242,24 @@ "Gross reproduction rate": { "text": "0.84 (2024 est.)" }, - "Contraceptive prevalence rate": { - "text": "NA" - }, "Drinking water source": { "improved: urban": { - "text": "urban: 97% of population" + "text": "urban: 95.4% of population (2022 est.)" }, "improved: rural": { - "text": "rural: 98.1% of population" + "text": "rural: 97% of population (2022 est.)" }, "improved: total": { - "text": "total: 97.4% of population" + "text": "total: 96% of population (2022 est.)" }, "unimproved: urban": { - "text": "urban: 3% of population" + "text": "urban: 4.6% of population (2022 est.)" }, "unimproved: rural": { - "text": "rural: 1.9% of population" + "text": "rural: 3% of population (2022 est.)" }, "unimproved: total": { - "text": "total: 2.6% of population (2020 est.)" + "text": "total: 4% of population (2022 est.)" } }, "Health expenditure": { @@ -281,22 +278,22 @@ }, "Sanitation facility access": { "improved: urban": { - "text": "urban: 97.8% of population" + "text": "urban: 94.8% of population (2022 est.)" }, "improved: rural": { - "text": "rural: 99.1% of population" + "text": "rural: 98.2% of population (2022 est.)" }, "improved: total": { - "text": "total: 98.3% of population" + "text": "total: 96.1% of population (2022 est.)" }, "unimproved: urban": { - "text": "urban: 2.2% of population" + "text": "urban: 5.2% of population (2022 est.)" }, "unimproved: rural": { - "text": "rural: 0.9% of population" + "text": "rural: 1.8% of population (2022 est.)" }, "unimproved: total": { - "text": "total: 1.7% of population (2020 est.)" + "text": "total: 3.9% of population (2022 est.)" } }, "Obesity - adult prevalence rate": { @@ -396,41 +393,44 @@ "text": "1.15% annual rate of change (2020-25 est.)" } }, - "Air pollutants": { - "particulate matter emissions": { - "text": "8.2 micrograms per cubic meter (2019 est.)" + "Carbon dioxide emissions": { + "total emissions": { + "text": "35.486 million metric tonnes of CO2 (2023 est.)" }, - "carbon dioxide emissions": { - "text": "37.71 megatons (2016 est.)" + "from coal and metallurgical coke": { + "text": "3.029 million metric tonnes of CO2 (2023 est.)" }, - "methane emissions": { - "text": "13.67 megatons (2020 est.)" + "from petroleum and other liquids": { + "text": "22.635 million metric tonnes of CO2 (2023 est.)" + }, + "from consumed natural gas": { + "text": "9.822 million metric tonnes of CO2 (2023 est.)" } }, + "Particulate matter emissions": { + "text": "7.5 micrograms per cubic meter (2019 est.)" + }, "Waste and recycling": { "municipal solid waste generated annually": { - "text": "2,692,537 tons (2012 est.)" - }, - "municipal solid waste recycled annually": { - "text": "888,537 tons (2012 est.)" + "text": "2.911 million tons (2024 est.)" }, "percent of municipal solid waste recycled": { - "text": "33% (2012 est.)" + "text": "42.4% (2022 est.)" } }, "Total water withdrawal": { "municipal": { - "text": "990 million cubic meters (2020 est.)" + "text": "1.106 billion cubic meters (2022 est.)" }, "industrial": { - "text": "520 million cubic meters (2020 est.)" + "text": "531.82 million cubic meters (2022 est.)" }, "agricultural": { - "text": "40 million cubic meters (2020 est.)" + "text": "39.63 million cubic meters (2022 est.)" } }, "Total renewable water resources": { - "text": "52 billion cubic meters (2020 est.)" + "text": "52 billion cubic meters (2022 est.)" }, "Geoparks": { "total global geoparks and regional networks": { @@ -635,7 +635,7 @@ }, "Diplomatic representation from the US": { "chief of mission": { - "text": "Ambassador (vacant); Chargé d’Affaires Michael CLAUSEN (since January 2025)" + "text": "Ambassador Edward S.
