of Fiji, in the South Pacific,
and consists of nine coral
atolls. The climate is
tropical. Coconut palms are
the main crop, and fruit and
vegetables are grown for local
consumption. Sea fishing is
extremely good although
largely unexploited. Most
export revenue comes from the
sale of elaborate postage
