Overview

Norfolk is a small South Pacific Island roughly 2/3 of the way between Sydney and Auckland. It is a self-governed community administrated by the Australian government. A large number of the residents are descendents of the HMS Bounty crew and there is a significant Polynesian influence to the culture.

An excellent and detailed description of Norfolk Island can be found on Wikipedia.
