Tokelau is a territory of New Zealand that consists of three tropical coral atolls with a combined land area of 10 km2 and a population of about 1400 in the South Pacific Ocean. They lie north of the Samoas, east of Tuvalu, south of the Phoenix Islands, southwest of the more distant Line Islands (both islands groups belonging to Kiribati) and northwest of the Cook Islands. The United Nations General Assembly designated Tokelau a Non-Self-Governing Territory.Until 1976 the official name was Tokelau Islands. Tokelau is sometimes referred to by Westerners by the older, colonial name of The Union Islands.Population: July 2009 estimate1,416 (220th)/Capital:None/ each atoll has its own administrative centre.Official language: Tokelauan,English/Motto: "Tokelau mo te Atua" (Tokelauan)
"Tokelau for the Almighty"/Government:Constitutional monarchy/Head of StateQueen Elizabeth II/Area: Total10 km2 (228th)
5 sq mi/Currency:New Zealand dollar (NZD)/Internet TLD.tk/Calling code690/
Tokelau has added more than 10% to its GDP through registrations of domain names under its top-level domain, .tk.Registrations can be either free, in which case the user owns only usage rights and not the domain itself, or paid, which grants full rights. Free domains are pointed to Tokelau name servers and the only services available are HTTP traffic being redirected via HTML frames to a specified address, and the redirection of up to 250 email address to external address (not at a .tk domain). As of January 2009 Free domains have no requirements for third party advertisements but have a minimum traffic limit of 25 unique visitors in any 90 day period. If this limit is not reached, the domain is suspended and the owner has either 10 days to convert the domain to a paid domain or have the domain deregistered.In September 2003 Fakaofo became the first part of Tokelau with a high-speed Internet connection. Foundation Tokelau financed the project. Tokelau gives most domain names under its authority away to anyone for free to gain publicity for the territory. This has allowed the nation to gain enhanced telecommunications technologies, such as more computers and Internet access for Tokelauan residents.
