Kosrae State : ウィキペディア英語版
Kosrae

Kosrae (pronunciation: ''koh-''), formerly known as Kusaie, is an island in Federated States of Micronesia. The State of Kosrae is one of four states of the Federated States of Micronesia, and includes the main island of Kosrae and about a dozen nearby islands and islets, the most significant of which is Lelu Island.
==Geography==

Kosrae, the easternmost of the Caroline Islands, has a population of 6,616 (2010 census).〔http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&oe=UTF-8&hl=en&q=cache:3W-uL5CKCfAJ:http://www.fsmgov.org/info/people.html+kosrae+population&ct=clnk〕 It is located approximately north of the equator, between Guam and the Hawaiian Islands. Its land area is approximately . Some parts of the island are experiencing coastal erosion.
Kosrae is a high island that is largely unspoiled. Kosrae is becoming a destination for scuba divers and hikers. The coral reefs that surround the island are kept in pristine condition through an extensive mooring buoy system, installed and maintained by concerned expat dive operators with the help of the government's Marine Resources office. The reefs are seldom visited, and contain miles of hard corals, some said to be thousands of years old.
Dense vegetation and steep mountains keep the island largely undeveloped. Viewed from the sea, the island's distinct shape resembles a female body. This has led to the island being called "the island of the sleeping lady."
Kosrae International Airport (IATA code KSA) is located on an artificial island within the fringing reef about 150 meters from the coast and is connected to the main island by a causeway. It is served by United Air Lines (formerly Continental Micronesia) "Island Hopper" flights (twice a week in each direction) between Hawaii and Guam, stopping at other FSM and Marshallese destinations on the way. Nauru Airlines also connect weekly to Brisbane in Australia and Nadi in Fiji.
There is one significant nearshore island within the fringing reef around Kosrae, which is Lelu Island, and it is only in area, but with a population of around 1,500. It belongs to Lelu municipality, which includes the area around Tofol, the state capital. Other very small, uninhabited islands within the fringing reef are, Yen Yen and Yenasr (also in Lelu municipality), the airport island, Kiul, Mutunyal, Sroansak (Tafunsak municipality), and Srukames (also Tafunsak municipality, Walung part).
