Vanuatu,
officially the Republic of Vanuatu, is a Melanesian island nation
located in the South Pacific Ocean. The archipelago is located some
1,750 km (1090 mi) east of Australia, 500 km (310 mi) north-east of
New Caledonia, west of Fiji and south of the Solomon Islands. In
1906 Britain and France officially claimed the country, jointly
managing it through the British-French Condominium. An independence
movement was established in the 1970s, and the Republic of Vanuatu
was created in 1980. In recent years it has implemented an
International Business Companies (IBC) Act. |
