Or invested the proceeds to sustain the island

I am curious as to what the locals actually think. Not just the poor or those in the top goverment. A rounded, well informed understanding of their culture and different political groups and identities would give a much better understanding of if things are bad and/or good for how many and for which parts of the population. We in the west usually project what is good and what is bad unto other parts of the world. Now we are usually right, but our perspectives are from our own culture and we therefore speak and suggest solutions, that makes sense in our own culture. But these often fail on a local level because there are, among other things, different stages of culture and history a people have to go through in order for them to act and think in certain adventagous ways of the modern world. This process is multi-generatinal.

If only they invested in an index fund

Nauru was fucked from start. And not because of stuff they went trough. They are extremely small Island, out of way with extremely small population. All things that make most trade and industry just not possible or competitive. Tourism would be super unlikely, for those reasons, there's plenty of really nice topical places that are more interesting, closer to major population centers or just more developed. Nauru is is after all just very small flat tropical island, there just isn't really anything that would attract tourists to make it actual sources of revenue. They did get one chance to do something, but they missed it unfortunately. To me, what their beat chance would have been was to take offer from Australia, to relocate there, they would have got island to themselves with way better prospects. Obviously while that island would be given to them, it would still be part of Australia so they would also become Austalians and essentially become local government so it's understandable why they refused. But with relocation to Curtis Island and infrastructure paid for by Australia + money they still got from phispate, they could have become quite propesperus.

don't destroy the marine ecology. Maybe they could have / encourage scientists to come study the people, ecology, geology. Teach advanced studies to college students from Australia, New Zealand, and surrounding islands. Teachers could be researchers. Maybe there could be a mission / programs for students and locals, to educate and find a way for these people to come back from this and survive. Why only have a college to teach basics to the people? I think thats a missed opportunity.

Is there a small island nation that is doing well? I feel like it’s very hard for independent small nations to remain wealthy without exploiting themselves.

The good people of Nauru were scammed by sophisticated international financiers. When I moved to Australia from Canada. in 1988 the Nauruan's received free lights to Melbourne twice per year, the got (almost) free houses in Nauru when the married, and (almost) free accommodation is Australia, at locations such as "The Islander's Place" in glitzy Easy Melbourne. They deserved to get a Sovereign Fund like that of Norway. Instead the got robbed.

Amazing video sir

Now do one on Norway ...

Nauru partied like there was no tomorrow, so not surprising.

The Australian immigration detention was highly effective and any competent government with the same issue should get their own Nauru.

Your videos are top class.

Didn't some of the people on the island buy luxury sports car to drive on the single ring road around the island?

Speaking of islander exploitation, do Chagos next!

They over relied on their natural resource, chose to be unemployed, government employees were paid a lot regardless if they were qualified or not, they did not value what they had

13:18 you can blame their corrupt and inhumane government for wasting all their money or keeping it for themselves. The population could have revolted but they didn’t so it was their own fault although of cause the previous colonizers are to a certain extent accountable.

they have nice beaches that will stay there forever unlike the other substance that went extinct. they should build hotels, beach bars and open a couple of factories making electricity and cars, or weapons to keep the trade with usa uk and australia so their currency dont get to be a terrible joke. In the worst case as russian mafia started doing some money laudring buisness there they could become a drug free country, it would be ok to export and deport drug substances but it would be illegal to use or sell these drugs on public. And that means that the goverment should have only one drug bank exporting it to the mafias that were having their money into nauru's national bank. With that more and more mafias would like tto spend their money on buying drugs by the legal and only supplier.... NAURU

I don’t even puff pot.

should've they've instead invested those revenue to stocks and bonds instead of ambitious real estates they would've still enjoying the fryit of their success

So it all trickles down to European ships discovering them. We all know its going to be devastating if you are discovered by the Europeans 😅
