About Majuro, Marshall Islands
Majuro is the capital and largest city of the Marshall Islands. The atoll has been inhabited for at least 2,000 years by Austronesian peoples, including the ancestors of modern-day Marshallese residents. Majuro's economy is driven by the service sector, which composed 86% of the GDP in 2011. (Wikipedia)
