Fiji

Fiji is divided into four major divisions, and these are further divided into 14 provinces.

Fiji consists of 322 islands (of which 106 are inhabited) and 522 smaller islets. The two most important islands are Viti Levu and Vanua Levu, which account for approximately three-quarters of the total land area of the country.
