AI overview

Polynesia is a vast region in the Pacific Ocean comprising over 1,000 islands spread across the central and southern waters, inhabited by indigenous people called Polynesians. These island communities share important connections through their languages, cultures, and traditional beliefs, which link them together as a distinct people despite their geographic separation.

玻里尼西亞（Polynesia，是從希臘語名稱Πολυνησία而來，poly相當於眾多之意，而nesia則相當於島）由位於太平洋中南部，大致在180°经线以东和南北纬30°之间；一大群超過1,000個以上的島嶼所組成，陆地总面积2.6万平方公里，島嶼零星分布，人煙稀疏。數百年前，善於航海的玻里尼西亞人經過遠洋航行到達這些無人島嶼並在此定居，成為玻里尼西亞各島嶼的最初居民，如新西蘭的毛利人等。
