The Timor and Wetar deciduous forests region, which covers the entire island, has 38 mammal species. East Timor's two endemic mammal species are the <a href="/wiki/Timor_shrew" title="Timor shrew">Timor shrew</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Timorese_horseshoe_bat" title="Timorese horseshoe bat">Timorese horseshoe bat</a>.

In particular, <a href="/wiki/Atauro" title="Atauro">Atauro Island</a>'s coral reefs have been recognized as having the highest average fish biodiversity of any site surveyed, with reef sites off Atauro carrying an average of 253 different species.

It is believed that this has most affected large marine species such as sharks; despite the diversity of the reefs, there were a significant lack of sharks recorded in the surveys of 2016. </p><p>East Timor's isolation and lack of tourism are believed to have helped preserve the reefs, as opposed to tourist-heavy locales such as Bali, where the abundance of tourism has negatively affected the health of the reefs. The Timorese government and local residents of Atauro have made attempts to preserve the reefs through education of local citizens, rejecting harmful development projects, and placing emphasis on traditional laws of preserving nature, called <i>Tara Bandu</i>.<sup id="cite_ref-116" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-116"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>114<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Economy">Economy</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=East_Timor&amp;action=edit&amp;section=12" title="Edit section: Economy"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Economy_of_East_Timor" title="Economy of East Timor">Economy of East Timor</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Economy_of_East_Timor_(nominal_GDP)(previous_and_data).png" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="Graph showing GDP since 2000 peaking at 2012, and beginning to rise again after a subsequent fall" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9a/Economy_of_East_Timor_%28nominal_GDP%29%28previous_and_data%29.png/220px-Economy_of_East_Timor_%28nominal_GDP%29%28previous_and_data%29.png" decoding="async" width="220" height="140" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9a/Economy_of_East_Timor_%28nominal_GDP%29%28previous_and_data%29.png/330px-Economy_of_East_Timor_%28nominal_GDP%29%28previous_and_data%29.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9a/Economy_of_East_Timor_%28nominal_GDP%29%28previous_and_data%29.png/440px-Economy_of_East_Timor_%28nominal_GDP%29%28previous_and_data%29.png 2x" data-file-width="957" data-file-height="611" /></a><figcaption>Nominal GDP of East Timor (previous and data)</figcaption></figure> <p>The economy of East Timor is a <a href="/wiki/Market_economy" title="Market economy">market economy</a>, although it is dependent upon the export of a few commodities<sup id="cite_ref-debrowser_117-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-debrowser-117"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>115<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> and has a large public sector.

Retrieved <span class="nowrap">24 August</span> 2020</span>. <q>The semi-presidential system in the new state of Timor-Leste has institutionalized a political struggle between the president, Xanana Gusmão, and the prime minister, Mari Alkatiri. This has polarized political alliances and threatens the viability of the new state. This paper explains the ideological divisions and the history of rivalry between these two key political actors. The adoption of Marxism by Fretilin in 1977 led to Gusmão's repudiation of the party in the 1980s and his decision to remove Falintil, the guerrilla movement, from Fretilin control. The power struggle between the two leaders is then examined in the transition to independence. This includes an account of the politicization of the defense and police forces and attempts by Minister of Internal Administration Rogério Lobato to use disaffected Falintil veterans as a counterforce to the Gusmão loyalists in the army. The December 4, 2002, Dili riots are explained in the context of this political struggle.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&amp;rft.genre=article&amp;rft.jtitle=Asian+Survey&amp;rft.atitle=Timor-Leste%3A+Divided+Leadership+in+a+Semi-Presidential+System&amp;rft.volume=43&amp;rft.issue=2&amp;rft.pages=231-252&amp;rft.date=2003&amp;rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.1525%2Fas.2003.43.2.231&amp;rft.issn=0004-4687&amp;rft.aulast=Shoesmith&amp;rft.aufirst=Dennis&amp;rft_id=http%3A%2F%2Fespace.cdu.edu.au%2Fview%2Fcdu%3A1248&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AEast+Timor" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-census-5"><span class="mw-cite-backlink">^ <a href="#cite_ref-census_5-0"><sup><i><b>a</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-census_5-1"><sup><i><b>b</b></i></sup></a></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite class="citation web cs1"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200125141940/http://www.statistics.gov.tl/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/2_2015-V2-Population-by-Age-Sex.xls">"Population by Age &amp; Sex"</a>.
