Vanuatu is a Y-shaped archipelago country in the South Pacific. It is the birthplace of bungee jumping and the most unique tourist destination among Pacific island countries. It was once a joint trusteeship of Britain and France. It gained independence in 1980. In 2006, it topped the "Happiness Index" rankings of the British New Economics Foundation, becoming the "happiest country" in the world. This book comprehensively and systematically introduces all aspects of Vanuatu's politics, history, economy, society, culture, and diplomacy, fills the research gap in the academic community, and provides an important reference for people to understand the Pacific island country of Vanuatu.

This book gave me a deeper understanding of Vanuatu! It is like a window to a happy country, and the book comprehensively and systematically introduces all aspects of the country. It reminds me of the book "Solomon Islands". They are all about Pacific island countries and they are all unique. I like the part about Vanuatu culture in the book, just like I like the characters in "Solomon Islands", it makes me feel the charm of different cultures. Recommended to friends who are interested in South Pacific island countries!
