Geography of Fiji
Fiji’s beautiful islands are situated 2100km north of Auckland New Zealand , with Vanuatu to the west, Tonga to the southeast and Samoa to the northeast. Fiji has become a major crossroad for both shipping and air travel across the Pacific, and boasts one of the region’s best visitor infrastructures. There are seven key areas – Nadi/Denarau , Nadi Offshore, Lautoka/Rakiraki Yasawa Group Coral Coast Pacific Harbour ... Suva , the Northern Group and the outer islands
Geography
Fiji’s 330 islands are predominantly volcanic in origin, with some smaller coral or limestone islets. Of these, only 106 are actually inhabited. At 18,272sq km, Fiji has the greatest land mass in Polynesia. The highest peak is Mt Tomanivi (1323m) on Vitu Levu (Great Land), Fiji’s largest island. Vitu Levu also has a highland plateau above 1000m. Here, the nights and winter daytime temperatures are considerably cooler than the coastal lowlands. The country’s capital, Suva, is located on Vitu Levu’s eastern side. It is the country’s largest city and major port. Vanua Levu (Big Land), with its wild and rugged interior, is the country’s second largest island.

Marooned in fiji in 1808. fiji s geography. The 300island archipelago of fijiis at the bottom of the Melanesian chain of islands south from New Guinea.
http://www.tribalsite.com/articles/fiji.htm
FIJI: THE WARRIOR ARCHIPELAGO In War they are fearless and savage to the utmost degree, but in peace their disposition is mild and generous towards their friends, and the affection they bear towards their relatives is seldom found among Europeans. William Lockerby Marooned in Fiji in 1808 Fiji's Geography The 300-island archipelago of Fiji is at the bottom of the Melanesian chain of islands south from New Guinea. The archipelago is bound on the west by the Yasawas, the closest islands of the Fiji group to the Melanesian islands of Vanuatu. Melanesian influence is particularly marked among the Yasawa population, notably with regard to phisiogomy, language and socio-religious characteristics. At the easternmost edge of the archipelago lie the small and isolated islands of the Lau group. The proximity of the Laus to the islands of West Polynesia, particularly Tonga, has resulted in a considerable flow of culture and genes from Polynesia, with the result that Lau islanders both physically and culturally resemble their neighbors to the east. At the center of these two small island groups lie the four main islands of Fiji: Viti Levu, Vanua Levu, Taveuni and Kandavu, which straddle the dividing line between two distinct peoples and their cultures. Fundamentally, Fijian society and culture are traditionally Melanesian, but modified by ideas and concepts introduced from Polynesia and integrated with Melanesian interests and practices.

Introduction

Fiji became independent in 1970, after nearly a century as a British colony. Democratic rule was interrupted by two military coups in 1987, caused by concern over a government perceived as dominated by the Indian community (descendants of contract laborers brought to the islands by the British in the 19th century). A 1990 constitution favored native Melanesian control of Fiji, but led to heavy Indian emigration; the population loss resulted in economic difficulties, but ensured that Melanesians became the majority. Amendments enacted in 1997 made the constitution more equitable. Free and peaceful elections in 1999 resulted in a government led by an Indo-Fijian, but a coup in May of 2000 ushered in a prolonged period of political turmoil. New elections are scheduled for August 2001.
