La République des Fidji est un pays d'Océanie situé dans l'océan Pacifique sud, à l'est du Vanuatu, à l'ouest des Tonga et au sud des Tuvalu. À la suite du coup d'état du 5 décembre 2006 de Frank Bainimarama et à la non tenue d'élections en 2009, le pays fut exclu du Commonwealth et suspendu du Forum des îles du Pacifique.
Fiji, officially the Republic of Fiji, is an island country in Melanesia in the South Pacific Ocean about 1,100 nautical miles (2,000 km; 1,300 mi) northeast of New Zealand's North Island. The majority of Fiji's islands were formed through volcanic activity starting around 150 million years ago. In the 17th and 18th centuries, the Dutch and the British explored Fiji. Fiji was a British colony until 1970. Fiji is one of the most developed economies in the Pacific island realm due to an abundance of forest, mineral and fish resources. Today, the main sources of foreign exchange are its tourist industry and sugar exports.
