Maldives or the Republic of Maldives is a chain of islands scattered over the Indian Ocean, situated right on the equator southwest of Sri Lanka. The islands stretch for about 820 km from North to South, 130 km at the widest point and each does not exceed a length of 4.5 miles or an altitude of 6 feet above sea level. Groups of these islands are clustered into 'Atolls', the word derived from a word 'Atholhu' in Dhivehi, a Maldivian language. The word Atoll has two meaning on its own; one represents a geographical atoll which is a formation of several islands in the proximity, while another refers to an administrative division. For this reason, several atolls have both an old traditional name and a name for its administrative region, some of which can be one and the same, for example, the administrative region of Lhaviyani Atoll is the geographical atoll of Faadhippolhu. However in some cases, some large geographical atolls are divided into two small administrative regions whereas some other two small geographical atolls are grouped into one administrative region.
