Fiji comprises more than 300 Islands and islets,
halfway between Hawaii and Australia. Only about 100 of them are inhabited though.
The Melanesian peoples are the original inhabitants of the Fijian
islands; dating back some 3,000 years.
The first European to sight the islands was probably
the Dutch navigator, Abel Tasman; in 1643.
James Cook, the British navigator, explored Turtle Island in 1774.
In 1874 Fijian King Cakobau allowed the islands to become a British
Crown colony.
Fiji was an important supply base during the Second World War, and
Fijians even served with the British forces.
Fiji gained full independence on October 10, 1970.
