Strange time zones: +14

There is actually a +14 time zone. It is found in Kiribati (pop. just over 100,000) and the Line Islands which are split between Kiribati and the US. These islands are mostly coral atolls including Kiritimati the largest atoll in the world by area.

So it is actually possible to be 26 hours ahead of another place on earth.
