World's smallest country may give up

Niue, off the coast of New Zealand, is currently the world's smallest sovereign state (unless you count SeaLand). They also run the ".nu" Top Level Domain. However, having just been hit by a massive cyclone, they may give up the whole Internet thing, as well as the whole being-a-country thing.

Niue means, in the native language, "Look, there's a coconut!" Seriously (PDF).
