Diego Garcia is a tropical, footprint-shaped coral atoll located south of theequator in the central Indian Ocean. It is part of the British Indian Ocean Territory (BIOT).

The atoll is approximately 1,970 nautical miles (3,650 km) east of the coast of Africa (at Tanzania), 967 nautical miles (1,790 km) south-southwest of the southern tip of India (at Kanyakumari) and 2,550 nautical miles (4,720 km) west-northwest of the west coast of Australia (at Cape Range National Park, Western Australia). Diego Garcia lies in the Chagos Archipelago at the southernmost tip of the Chagos-Laccadive Ridge—a vast submarine range in the Indian Ocean,^[2] topped by a long chain ofcoral reefs, atolls, and islands comprising Lakshadweep, Maldives, and theChagos Archipelago. Local time is UTC+06:00 year-round (DST is not observed).^[3]

The United States Navy operates Naval Support Facility (NSF) Diego Garcia, a large naval ship and submarine support base, military air base, communications and space-tracking facility, and an anchorage for pre-positioned military supplies for regional operations aboard Military Sealift Command ships in the lagoon.^[4]

The sovereignty of the Chagos Archipelago, including Diego Garcia, is beingdisputed between the United Kingdom and Mauritius. The United Kingdom excised the archipelago from Mauritian territory prior to Mauritius' independence in 1968.

Between 1968 and 1973, the Chagossians, then numbering about 2,000 people, were resettled by the British government to Mauritius andSeychelles to allow the United States to establish a military base on the island. Today, the exiled Chagossians are still trying to return, claiming that the forced expulsion was illegal (see Depopulation of Diego Garcia).^[5][6]
