Chatham Islands

New Zealand - God’s Own Country

Wikipedia has a page called:

Chatham Islands

The Chatham Islands lie about 800 km east of Christchurch (centred on a point 43°59′17″S, 176°27′13″W).

Earliest known settlers were Moriori.

The islands became part of New Zealand in 1842.

Chief town is Waitangi with a population of about 200; about 500 residents elsewhere make up the total, easily the smallest of any local government territory in the country.

Its economy is largely based on fishing.
