The Pacific
This vast Region, the Pacific,
is really a mixed Geographical bag.
It is made up of
Continental Islands and Island chains and is home
to about eight million people
with many languages and cultures.
The Pacific Region is probably the most
diverse of any and as such,
does not fit
comfortably into just one neat little category.
Some group it in with Asian
Regions, while others try
to squeeze it in with the
Americas.
Where ever this Region ends
up, it is one very unique area
and quite worthy of having
its own category.
These web sites will take
you to the Region called
the Pacific and share its
unique history with you:
