Nova Caledonia

Nova Caledonia est collectivitas transmarina Francica in parte meridioccidentali Oceani Pacifici sita, 1210 chiliometra ad orientem Australiae et 20 000 chiliometra a Francia Metropolitana distans. Hic archipelagus, qui pars culturalis regionis Melanesiae est, Terram Magnam (Grand Terre), Insulas Fidelitatis (Îles Loyauté), Insulas Chesterfield, archipelagum Belep, Insulam Pinorum, nonnullasque insulas perparvas comprehendit. Numerus civium circa 216 000 hominum est. A die 13 Maii 2024, protestationes populi violentae contra reformationem suffragii fiunt, quae iura indigenarum et libertatem violare possunt, ex quibus quattuor homines mortui sunt. Die 23 Maii, Emmanuel Macron, praeses Franciae, Novam Caledoniam adiit atque "insurrectionis inauditum motum" esse et 3000 vigiles ex Francia manere debere dixit.
