São Tomé and Príncipe is an island country in west-central Africa, consisting of the islands of São Tomé and Príncipe and the surrounding islets, with the capital, São Tomé, located in the northeastern part of São Tomé. Located on the Gulf of Guinea, about 200 kilometers from the African continent, the country was colonized by Portugal in the 15th century and became independent in 1975, with Portuguese as the official language and an economy based on agriculture (cocoa, palm oil) and tourism. It should be noted that "Java" is not a city or region of the country; Java is the main island of Indonesia, with cities such as Jakarta and Surabaya, and has nothing to do with São Tomé and Príncipe, possibly due to a confusion of names.
Arthur is a small unincorporated community in Elko County, Nevada, United States, located in the northeastern part of the state on the edge of the Great Basin, surrounded by a vast desert and ranching landscape. It is sparsely populated, with fewer than 200 permanent residents according to recent statistics, and retains a typical western small-town appearance, with a historic school, post office, and a handful of local stores in the center of the community, and economic activity that relies heavily on the surrounding livestock and mining industries. Away from large urban centers and with starry nights, Arthur is one of the destinations for experiencing Nevada's quiet country life and a gateway to surrounding state parks and nature preserves for travelers seeking untouched natural beauty.
