Bora Bora, the pearl of the Pacific, is not a part of the United States. Bora Bora is in the Pacific Ocean between Australia and South America. As a result, it is also not a part of these nations. It is, nevertheless, a part of French Polynesia. As the letter "B" is not found in the indigenous alphabet, the island's actual name is "Pora Pora." The people who live on the isle communicate using a blend of Tahitian and French. The term Pora Pora means "the firstborn." This indicates that the island is exceedingly ancient, maybe around seven million years old. However, the island was first found in 1722 by Dutch admiral Jacob Roggeveen.
