Why is Kiribati first?

The new year starts at midnight local time, so it travels round the Earth from east to west, following the time zones. The Line Islands, in Kiribati, have been on UTC+14 since 1995, when the country moved the International Date Line so that all its islands would be on the same day: they are the first to celebrate the new year, at 10:00 UTC.

At the other end, American Samoa and Niue, on UTC−11, are the last inhabited places to celebrate, around midday UTC on 1 January. Samoa and American Samoa are only about a hundred kilometres apart, but 24 hours separate them: one is among the first, the other among the last.
