Tuamotus
The Tuamotus or the Tuamotu Archipelago ((フランス語:Îles Tuamotu), officially ''フランス語:Archipel des Tuamotu'') are a chain of islands and atolls in French Polynesia. They form the largest chain of atolls in the world, spanning an area of the Pacific Ocean roughly the size of Western Europe. The Tuamotu islands were originally settled by Polynesians who share a common culture and language. The islands were originally called by the Tahitians of Tahiti the ''Paumotus'', which means the "Subservient Islands", until a delegation from the island convinced the French authorities to change it to ''Tuamotus'', which means the "Distant Islands".
== Administrative divisions ==
French Polynesia is a semi-autonomous island group designated as an overseas country of France. The Tuamotus combine with the Gambier Islands to form the ''Îles Tuamotu-Gambier'' which is one of the five administrative divisions of French Polynesia.
The Tuamotus are grouped into sixteen communes: Anaa; Arutua; Fakarava; Fangatau; Hao; Hikueru; Makemo; Manihi; Napuka; Nukutavake; Puka Puka; Rangiroa; Reao; Takaroa; Tatakoto; and Tureia.
