Funafuti is the capital of Tuvalu, one of the smallest and most remote nations on Earth. The capital is situated on a narrow atoll where the land is often no more than 20 to 100 meters wide. Tuvalu is at the forefront of the climate change crisis; its highest point is only about 4.5 meters above sea level. Funafuti is unique because its main airstrip serves a dual purpose: when planes aren't landing, the runway becomes the country's primary public space for soccer matches, volleyball, and even evening strolls. There is so little land available that every square meter must be utilized. The nation is also famous in the digital world for its '.tv' internet domain extension, which provides a significant portion of the country's national income through licensing deals with streaming platforms. Despite its beauty, the rising tides pose an existential threat to Funafuti, leading the government to explore digital sovereignty and land reclamation as means of survival.
