Explore the unique geography of the Bering Strait, where two tiny Diomede Islands 🏝️ serve as a remarkable divide between the US and Russia.
Little Diomede, part of the USA, is home to one of the most isolated towns in the country, with a population of 80 people. Meanwhile, Big Diomede, belonging to Russia, remains uninhabited except for military personnel.
