Yes, Papua New Guinea is certainly not a desert! It is a tropical area that experiences humid rain, usually all year round but mostly in the Southern Hemisphere's winter.

Papua New Guinea is on the island of New Guinea, in the southern hemisphere. The western half of the island, together with numerous nearby islands, constitute the country of Papua New Guinea. It lies within the geographical region known as Oceania (which is not a continent), and is directly north of Australia's eastern half. It is east of Indonesia, between the Coral Sea and the South Pacific Ocean.

"Guinea" is located on the west side of Africa; Papua New Guinea is a separate country, and is located above Australia.

The two countries are Indonesia and Papua New Guinea.

Indonesia occupies the western half of New Guinea, which was formerly a colony of the Dutch. Papua New Guinea, which was formerly under the protection of Australia, became an independent country in 1975.

Papua New Guinea is in Oceania, the southwestern part of the Pacific Ocean. It makes up the eastern half of the island of New Guinea.

No it is not, it has strong Christian values and beliefs.

The Australian army was in Papua New Guinea during World War II to offset the perceived threat of invasion from the Japanese.

Japan had already begun bombing Darwin and other northern centres. In May 1942, a Japanese invasion fleet departed Rabaul for Port Moresby, and the Battle of the Coral Sea began. It was a very real threat which was only turned back by the US aircraft leaving from carriers.

After being turned back by the US, the Japanese then turned their attention to an attack over the Owen Stanley Range via the Kokoda Track, which linked the northern and southern coasts of Papua New Guinea. Thanks to the Papua New Guinean natives assisting the Australians and the US troops, the Japanese were turned back, having to retreat to bases at Buna, Gona and Sanananda, where they were eventually defeated.

Papua New Guinea is known for the Kokoda Trail, where a particularly bloody battle was fought during World War II. the Australians and the US defence forces joined strength to repel the Japanese who were attempting to reach the southern coast of Papua New Guinea from the north, across the treacherous Owen Stanley Range, via the Kokoda trail.

Thanks to the Papua New Guinean natives assisting the Australians and the US troops, the Japanese were turned back, having to retreat to bases at Buna, Gona and Sanananda, where they were eventually defeated. Dubbed the "fuzzy wuzzy angels", the Papua New Guineans forever earned the respect of the Australians for their vital part in the campaign.

In reference to sports, Papua New Guineans are most popular with Rugby, Netball and Volleyball. Due to safety, most citizens choose not to mingle with people at courts etc. and resort to staying indoors.

Papua New Guinea is a Ocean-Ocean Convergent Boundary Type

The Japanese wanted to take Port Moresby over for a base to invade Australia.

It has been speculated that the Japanese wanted a base from which to mount an attack on Australia. Certainly, Port Moresby stood in the way of Japanese domination over the south Pacific. The defence of Port Moresby was critical to victory in the south Pacific and to the defence of Australia. Had Port Moresby fallen, it would have left northern Australia more vulnerable to attack.

Singapore had already fallen, Rabaul (PNG) had already fallen, and the Japanese troops were getting much closer. Over the period of a year or more, Darwin and northern parts of Australia experienced periodic bombings from the Japanese.

In May 1942, a Japanese invasion fleet departed Rabaul for Port Moresby, and the Battle of the Coral Sea began. It was a very real threat which was only turned back by the US aircraft leaving from carriers. After being turned back by the US, the Japanese then turned their attention to an attack over the Owen Stanley Range via the Kokoda Track, which linked the northern and southern coasts of Papua New Guinea.

The Independent State of Papua New Guinea is a country that occupies the eastern half of the island of New Guinea. Port Moresby is the capital and largest city of Papua New Guinea.

No, Papua New Guinea is in the Pacific. It is the country on the eastern half of the island of New Guinea, although it is sometimes called New Guinea for short. The western half of New Guinea is Indonesian territory. Papua New Guine and New Guinea are completely different to the country of Guinea (officially the 'Republic of Guinea') in west Africa.

You can compare the Bird of Paradise's relationship with Papua New Guinea to Australia's with kangaroos. The Bird of Paradise is just a very common bird in New Guinea, that has become a symbol to represent PNG. To Papua New Guineans, the Bird of Paradise is their identity; it is a symbol of patriotism.

New Guinea is on the Australian Plate at the boundary with the Filipino Plate. Some were caused by the subduction of the Filipino Plate, some are volcanic.

Papua New Guinea's road to independence is quite complicated.

The northern half of Papua New Guinea was known as German New Guinea after it came under German control in 1884, while the southern half was known as British New Guinea, later renamed to Papua in 1904. During WWI, the island was occupied by Australian troops to defend the British half. When the Treaty of Versailles was established after World War I, Australia administered German New Guinea, and the British part of the island came to be considered an External Territory of the Commonwealth of Australia, though it was still "owned" by Britain. The two territories were regarded as separate territories, known as 'Papua' and 'New Guinea'.

After the New Guinea Campaign of World War II, the two territories came together as 'Papua New Guinea'. Australia still administered Papua New Guinea until the country was granted full independence on 16 September 1975. Papua New Guinea's Head of State is still the Queen of England, just as Australia's is, as it remains a member of the Commonwealth of Nations.

The Dutch and Portuguese began trading with the native Papua New Guinean people during the sixteenth century, but they did not colonise the country.

Papua New Guinea was colonised when Germany took control of the northern half in 1884, and Britain took control of the southern half the same year.
