Wallis and Futuna, officially the Territory of Wallis and Futuna Islands (French: Wallis et Futuna or Territoire des îles Wallis et Futuna), is a group of three volcanic tropical islands (Wallis (Uvea), Futuna, and Alofi with fringing reefs located in the South Pacific Ocean between Fiji and Samoa.
Administration
Wallis and Futuna has been a French overseas collectivity (French: collectivité d'outre-mer, or COM) since 2003. Between 1961 and 2003, it had the status of an overseas territory (French: territoire d'outre-mer, or TOM).
History
Although they were discovered by the Dutch and the British in the 17th and 18th centuries, it was the French who were the first Europeans to settle in the territory, with the arrival of French missionaries in 1837, who converted the population to Catholicism. Wallis is named after the Cornish explorer Samuel Wallis. More on [ Wallis and Futuna ]
