Initially the German Solomon Islands Protectorate included Choiseul, Santa Isabel, the Shortlands and Ontong Java Islands, but in 1900 these islands were transferred to the British Solomon Islands Protectorate. The largest of the Solomon Islands, Bougainville, continued under German administration until World War I when it fell to Australia, and after the war, it formally passed to Australian jurisdiction under a League of Nations mandate.

Name.
Most local names for the island are Mala, or its dialect variants Mara or Mwala. The name Malaita or Malayta appears in the logbook of the Spanish explorers who in the 16th century visited the islands, and claimed that to be the actual name. They first saw the island from Santa Isabel, where it is called Mala. One theory is that "ita" was added on, as the Bughotu word for up or east, or in this context "there." Bishop George Augustus Selwyn referred to it as Malanta in 1850. Mala was the name used under British control; now Malaita is used for official purposes. The name Big Malaita is also used to distinguish it from the smaller South Malaita Island., Correction on Family and Culture: High Chief: Ououinemauri. 8 Iola: 1) Korutalaupeine, 2)Korutalaumwaimwei, 3)Hoasitaimwane, 4)Iolairamo, 5)Ero-ueniusu, 6)Louatowa, 7)Ueniusupaina, 8) Apuilalamoa.

South Malaita came under effective control of the colonial administration after the Solomon Islands was declared a British Protectorate in 1893.
