Tarawa, Kiribati
Tarawa, Kiribati is the capital of the Pacific island nation of Kiribati, located in the Tarawa Atoll near the equator, consisting of several small islands, and is the political, economic and cultural center of the country. The city is low-lying, with an average elevation of less than 2 meters above sea level, and faces the serious challenge of rising sea levels. Tarawa has a population of about 50,000, nearly half of the country's total population, and its main industries include fishing, copra processing and tourism. As one of the first cities in the world to welcome a new sunrise, Tarawa's unique location and natural beauty attracts tourists, while at the same time attracting international attention for climate change issues. The Kiribati government is actively promoting measures to combat sea level rise in an effort to protect the future of this low-lying capital.

Overview of Sao Tome and Principe (note on "Java")
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.
