Papua New Guinea
Rabaul, Papua New Guinea connects to 8751 places across 15 topics through 159 Bunkabop connections, with military history as the dominant thread by far. The town served as a major Japanese base during World War II, hosting operations that included the longest fighter escort mission of the war to that point, a 556-mile sortie by the Tainan Air Group. Australia seized the settlement in World War I, renaming it from a mangrove swamp site. Rabaul also appears in Japanese film history, including the 1954 war drama "Farewell Rabaul."
