oceana links, google directory of island nations including norfolk.
recently the volokians have reported on the channel islands, guernsey.
The islands are loyal to the queen, but are not part of england or britain.
historically, they have been tax havens. recently, there's been pressure on tax havens.
i was reminded of norfolk, a pacific island which is in a dispute with austrailia.
norfolk is loyal to the queen, but considers itself independent of austrailia, which doesn't agree. the largest ethic group on norfolk is pitcainers, an english-polynesian hybrid resulting from the mutiny on the bounty. only about 50 still live on pitcairn, most were relocated to norfolk.
