Funafuti is an atoll located in the nation of Tuvalu. It serves as the country's capital and consists of numerous islets. As of the 2017 census, the area had a population of 6,320 people.
The atoll is highly centralized, containing approximately 60% of Tuvalu's total population, which means more people reside in Funafuti than in the rest of the nation combined. The main islet, Fongafale, serves as the primary hub and hosts Vaiaku, the administrative center of the country.
