I removed the statement "In 2001 it had an area of 31 miles (50 kilometers)" for two reasons: the quantity specified (31 miles) is not a measure of area; if 31 SQUARE miles was meant, then it conflicts with the next statement as to length and width. I don't have access to any books on the subject, but the Internet leads me to believe that the area is in excess of 1,000 square kilometers. Larry (talk) 04:37, 19 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
