The Marshalls extend over a 700-mi (1,130-km) area and comprise two major groups: the Ratak Chain in the east, and the Ralik Chain in the west, with a total of 34 atolls, c.900 reefs, and a land area of 70 sq mi (181 sq km). The major atolls are Majuro , the capital; Arno; Ailinglaplap; Jaluit , with a fine natural harbor, the archipelago's chief trade center; and Kwajalein , the largest atoll and site of a U.S. intercontinental ballistic missile test range. The population of the Marshalls is largely Micronesian and Christian (mainly Protestant). English is the official language; two native dialects of Marshallese, a Malayo-Polynesian tongue, and Japanese are also spoken. The chief industries are agriculture, fishing, and tourism; copra, sugar, and handicrafts are the major exports. A large portion of the Marshallese economy is dependent on U.S. aid.

Extractions: More about Steve... I am a geography graduate of St John's College, Cambridge and went on to Leicester to take my PhD. I came to Queen's in 1976 as a lecturer, and am now a Senior Lecturer. I am a human geographer with interests in settlement, including historical settlements. At present I am course co-ordinator for our Level 1 Human Geography course (210GGY105) and give a Level 3 course entitled 'Aspects of urban development' (210GGY307). I have researched extensively on Ireland and have been President of the Geographical Society of Ireland and the Ulster Society for Irish Historical Studies. I represent Ireland on the Council of British Geography and also serve on the (Irish) National Committee for Geography. I have taught in both Canada and the USA and this interest is reflected in my jointly edited book, North America, and in my being Co-Director of Queen's University's Centre of Canadian Studies, which is housed in the School of Geography. I have for decades worked for what is now the Northern Ireland Council for the Curriculum, Examinations and Assessment (CCEA). I have also linked into the schools sector in my work for the Geographical Association (I have been President of the Belfast Branch) and for Geography Review, on the board of which I serve as Senior Examiner Advisor. Most recently, I have become a Member of the Institute of Learning and Teaching.
