The islands are best known as home of the descendants of the [[Mutiny on the Bounty|''Bounty'' mutineers]] and the [[Tahiti]]ans who accompanied them, an event retold in numerous books and films.

With only 50 inhabitants<ref>[http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100420/ap_on_re_as/as_tonga_bounty_voyage Recent article mentioning island]</ref> (from nine families), Pitcairn is also notable for being the least populated and most remote jurisdiction in the world (although it is not a [[sovereign state|sovereign nation]]). It is the least populous country in the world. The [[United Nations]] Committee on Decolonisation includes the Pitcairn Islands on the [[United Nations list of Non-Self-Governing Territories]].<ref>[http://www.un.org/Depts/dpi/decolonization/trust3.htm United Nations list of Non-Self-Governing Territories]</ref>-->
