Nauru: an island country in the west Pacific ocean
Pronunciation: nah-OO-roo
I found a website with a very useful geography tool...for students and teachers alike-- a Geography Pronunciation Guide! The website is very simple, but allows the user to identify the location of every country in the world AND to hear (an audio file provided) the correct pronunciation of each country as well!
A single link from the main simple website directs you to this easy to use Geography Pronunciation Guide, Country locator, and simple country facts site (Capital, population, area/size, currency, climate, & nationality):

I found another site that offers correct pronunciations of world countries and some other interesting topics as well:
(This site offers only the pronunciations.)
More cool teacher stuff. We'll get together soon.
