The atoll you showed is called Kiritimati and in Gilbertese all "ti"s are pronounced like an "s". So Kiritimati is pronounced Kirismas. The name is indeed derived from the English word "Christmas", hence the atoll is also called the Christmas Island.
And Kiribati itself is the local pronunciation of Gilberts. The Gilbert and Ellice Islands were a British colony; the first became independent as Kiribati, and the latter as Tuvalu.
@@beorlingoThey mostly don't really seem to care. But one of my teachers was from Christmas Island 🇨🇽 and they mentioned how some Christmas Islanders "have a friendly rivalry" with I-Kiribati, since they're aware that the two islands are both incredibly jolly 🎄
The mechanic thing is just a local legend. The actual reason this place is named Poland is the fact that one of the administrators (in the era of Emmanuel Rougier being the renter of Kiribati) was a Frenchman of Polish descent, Charles Malinowski.

"The country covers a DISTANCE of 811 km squared"... Ok, there are so many things wrong with this video I don't know where to start. 1. That's an AREA, not a distance 2. The place shown on your map is Kiritimati, one of the 30+ atolls that make up the nation 3. You're allegedly creating an educational video, even being mildly smug about "most people not knowing so and so about Kiribati" and you mess up like this. Dude. Just delete this altogether, do research that's more thorough than reading a Reddit post and remake the video. This is disgraceful.
