Yaren (and sometimes Aiwo) is usually listed as the capital of Nauru though this is incorrect; the republic does not have cities or an official capital. Yaren is accepted by the United Nations as the "main district".
Yaren also constitutes a political constituency. It returns two members to the Parliament of Nauru.
