Easter Island uses the Chilean peso.
The transportation of moai across Easter Island required the use of large amounts of wood for rollers and sledges. This extensive deforestation led to soil erosion, impacting the island's ability to sustain agricultural practices, contributing to environmental degradation and the collapse of the forests.
There are various explanations and theories for the almost-entirely treeless state of Easter Island. Climatic effects and deforestation and farming by humans are two explanations; the link below gives more information about Easter Island and its ecology. Answer --> Originally, it is not treeless. It was shown by archaeologist that trees such as Paschalococos, Alphitonia zizyphoides and Eleaocarpus rarotongensis use to be abundant. But as local population grew (to estimated 15,000), overharvesting becomes a problem. This coupled with rat predation and climate change leads to the island being largely deforested.
You would use the Spanish phrase: Felices Pascuas.
I believe so. If you use Google Maps, and you zoom in on Easter Island, then you can see a bunch of little houses scattered all over the place.
The Easter Island heads, also known as moai, were carved from volcanic tuff, a type of compressed volcanic ash found on the island. These statues typically range from 13 to 33 feet in height and weigh around 14 to 82 tons.

The author likely uses the analogy to highlight the protective or watchful presence that the Easter Island statues exude, similar to how sentries guard and defend a kingdom. This comparison helps readers understand the solemn and imposing nature of the statues on the island.
Rongorongo is a system of glyphs or symbols discovered on Easter Island. It is believed to be a form of writing, but its exact meaning and use remain undeciphered due to a lack of understanding of the underlying language and context. The script is unique to Easter Island and has not been found anywhere else.
Yes, you are allowed to live on Easter Island, which is a territory of Chile. The island has a small resident population, primarily consisting of Rapa Nui people and other Chileans. However, there are regulations regarding land use and residence, and visitors typically need special permits to stay for extended periods. Living on the island often requires adherence to local laws and cultural practices.
No. It is potentially renewable, but remember the lesson of Easter Island: if you use up renewable reasources faster than you can renew them, you will exhaust them.
