Country List World Factbook Home The World Factbook Fiji Introduction Fiji Background: 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 2000 ushered in a prolonged period of political turmoil. Parliamentary elections held in August 2001 provided Fiji with a democratically elected government and gave a mandate to the government of Prime Minister Laisenia QARASE.

GEOGRAPHY
The Fiji islands are located to the southwest of the Pacific Ocean, north of the tropic of Capricorn and south of the equator. Australia is 3,160km to the southwest, and New Zealand lies 2,120 km to the south. Nearby Pacific State Islands include Tonga to the east and Vanuatu to the west.
Click to enlarge

The archipelago includes more than 300 islands. Island dimensions differ from tiny plots of land a few meters in width to Viti Levu, or 'big Fiji', which is 10,390 sq km. The second largest island is Vanua Levu, or 'big land', with an area of 5,538 sq km. Only about one-third of the islands are inhabited, mainly due to remoteness and to lack of fresh water.
The highest peak in Fiji is in Viti Levu, Mt Tomanivi, or Mt. Victoria, at 1,323m. It is near the northern end of the diving range that separates east from west. Suva, the country's capital, is in the south east of Viti Levu.

    Fiji is a group of volcanic islands in the South Pacific lying about 4,450 km (2,775 mi.) southwest of Honolulu and 1,770 km (1,100 mi.) north of New Zealand . Its 322 islands range in size from the largeVitu Levu (where Suva and 70% of the population are located) and Vanua Levuto much smaller islands, of which just over 100 are inhabited. The larger islands contain mountains as high as 1,200 meters (4,000 ft.) rising abruptly from the shore. Heavy rains (up to 304 cm or 120 inches annually) fall on the windward (southeastern) side, covering these sections of the islands with dense tropical forest. Lowlands on the western portions of each of the main islands are sheltered by the mountains and have a well-marked dry season favorable to crops such as sugarcane More than half of Fiji's population lives on the island coasts, either in Suva or in smaller urban centers. The interior is sparsely populated due to its rough terrain. Location: Oceania, island group in the South Pacific Ocean, about two-thirds of the way from
