ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Archipelago

An archipelago is a fancy word for a group of islands. Imagine you have a bunch of little Lego pieces that you arrange together to make a big island. Now imagine you have lots of those big islands, all arranged close together in the water. That's an archipelago! It's like a big puzzle made up of lots of little pieces that fit together in the ocean. Some people love to explore and visit archipelagos, because each little island can have its own unique culture and features, kind of like how each different Lego block has its own shape and color.
