From wikipedia about Niue
Niue ( ; Niuean : Niuē) is an island country in the South Pacific Ocean. It is commonly known as the "Rock of Polynesia", and inhabitants of the island call it "the Rock" for short.
Niue is northeast of
New Zealand in a triangle between
Tonga to the southwest, the Samoas to the northwest, and the
Cook Islands to the southeast. The land area is with about 1, 400 people who are predominantly Polynesian.
Though self-governing,
Niue is in free association with
New Zealand, and lacks full sovereignty. All Niueans are
New Zealand citizens and Queen Elizabeth II is Niue's head of state. Most diplomatic relations are conducted by
New Zealand on Niue's behalf.
In 2003,
Niue became the world's first "WiFi nation", in which free wireless Internet access is provided throughout the country by The Internet Users Society-Niue.
