Aogashima is a small, tropical volcanic island in the Philippine Sea, under the administration of Tokyo. The island itself is a giant volcanic crater, and within that crater there is another, smaller volcano.

Aogashima is still considered an active Class-C volcano though it last erupted in the 1780s. When it last erupted it killed nearly half of the islands population and forced the remaining inhabitants to flee. It took just fifty years for the people to return. Today, some 200 brave villagers live on the island.

The world's largest salt flat at 10,582 square kilometers. The Salar was formed as a result of transformations between several prehistoric lakes.
