Yes. It is a volcanic island.
Signs point to 1,500 islands. And most likely true counting all the beautiful uninhabited island and atolls in the FSM. But, there are four main islands that make up the Federation. They are, starting from east to west, Kosrae, Pohnpei, Chuuk, and Yap.
The Nation known as the Federated States of Micronesia consists of four states: Chuuk, Yap, Kosrae, and Pohnpei and is located among the islands in the SW Pacific. Each state is made up of multiple small islands spread in a large area of ocean and each historically has its own time zone: * Chuuk's time zone is called Truk Time, since Chuuk used to be called Truk. The time zone is abbreviated as TRUT. It corresponds with the GMT/UTC Zone +10. * Yap's time zone is known as Yap Time, abbreviated as YAPT, also GMT/UTC +10. * Kosrae has Kosrae Time, abbreviated as KOST, corresponding to GMT/UTC + 11. * Pohnpei's time zone is Ponape Time, with the abbreviation of PONT. Pohnpei was formerly known as Ponape. This time zone is equivalent to GMT/UTC + 11. Daylight Savings Time is not observed. Additional information: Palikir is the Nation's Capital City located on Pohnpei, the island formerly known as Ponape, which is the most developed island of the Federation. The airport is located on a small island just off the main island of Pohnpei. The population on Pohnpei of around 34,000 is the largest of the states. It is growing in popularity with world surfers who consider the Palikir Pass (aka P-Pass) as one of the best reef pass surfs in the world. The coral reef is also well known by SCUBA enthusiasts and fishermen. Chuuk, which means "mountain" in Chuukese, was Japan's main base in the South Pacific Theatre in WW2 when it was known as Truk. It is known as one of the world's best shipwreck diving destinations as well as for its brightly colored corals. Yap, known as Wa'ab to the locals, is the state farthest West and is made up of islands that stretch over 600 miles across the Pacific. It is known as the Island of Stone Money, because they still use stone money for some transactions. It is well known by divers as a place with a population of giant manta rays always available to divers who want to swim with them. Kosrae is farthest east and incorporates multiple atolls. It is unspoiled and rarely visited. One of its geographical features is a mountain with a shape that has earned the island the name of "The Island of the Sleeping Lady", when viewed from out at sea, it looks like a woman lying down. How to say thank you in Kosraean: "Kulo".
The coordinates 154 degrees Longitude West and 1 degree Latitude South refer to a location in the Pacific Ocean, approximately 160 miles southeast of Pohnpei Island in the Federated States of Micronesia. It is a remote area of open water without any significant land masses.
