The Two Groups Islands ((フランス語:Îles Deux Groupes)) is a minor subgroup of the Tuamotus in French Polynesia. It is formed by the atolls of Marokau to the north (populated by 100 people) and the uninhabited Ravahere to the south. The two atolls are separated by a wide sound.〔(Geonames - Îles Deux Groupes )〕 ==History== These two neighboring atolls were discovered by Louis Antoine de Bougainville in 1768.〔(Photo satellite des Îles Deux Groupes (Archipel des Tuamotu) )〕 It was James Cook, however, who named them "Two Groups" the following year. He described Marokau and Revahere as a "chain of islands linked by reefs".〔Charles Pierre Claret de Fleurieu et al. ''Discoveries of the French in 1768 and 1769, to the south-east of New Guinea'', J. Stockdale, 1791〕
