Dili is a melting pot of the different ethnic groups of East Timor. Dili lies on the northern coast of Timor island, the easternmost of the Lesser Sunda Islands. In 1999, East Timor was placed under UN supervision and on 20 May 2002, Dili became the capital of the newly independent Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste. In May 2006, fighting and rioting sparked by conflict between elements of the military caused significant damage to the city and led to foreign military intervention to restore order.

This footage is of a cemetery in Dili. Most of the population are Christians. The Roman Catholic Diocese of Díli runs purportedly the largest cathedral in Southeast Asia.
