Passengers on the Tokaido Shinkansen can see the office sign for the state of Ngeremlengui in the Republic of Palau as the train rolls through Nagoya.
The office is officially recognized by Ngeremlengui, a small state that has a population of barely more than 300. It is unusual for a state agency to be situated in the middle of Nagoya, since most foreign representatives prefer Tokyo.
The office is in a multitenant building along a main road in the Toyoda district in Minami Ward. The other tenants include bars and pubs.
