   The following information replaces similar information for Japan
Small Companies Fund found in the "Investment Details" section on page
P-23:

   FMR normally invests at least 65% of the fund's total assets in
securities of Japanese issuers with small market capitalizations.
Small market capitalization issuers are those whose market
capitalization is similar to the market capitalization of companies in
the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE) Second Section Index or the JASDAQ
Stock Index at the time of the fund's investment. Issuers whose
capitalization no longer meets this definition after purchase continue
to be considered to have a small market capitalization for purposes of
the 65% policy. As of May 31, 1999, the TSE Second Section Index
included companies with capitalizations between $0.7 million and $7.9
billion. As of May 31, 1999, the JASDAQ Stock Index included companies
with capitalizations between $2.7 million and $7.1 billion. The size
of companies in these indexes changes with market conditions and the
composition of the indexes. FMR may also invest the fund's assets in
Japanese issuers with larger market capitalizations and in
non-Japanese issuers. FMR normally invests the fund's assets primarily
in common stocks.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS

Many factors affect each fund's performance. A fund's share price
changes daily based on changes in market conditions and interest rates
and in response to other economic, political or financial
developments. A fund's reaction to these developments will be affected
by the types of the securities in which the fund invests, the
financial condition, industry and economic sector, and geographic
location of an issuer, and the fund's level of investment in the
securities of that issuer. Because FMR concentrates each fund's
investments in a particular country or group of countries, each fund's
performance is expected to be closely tied to economic and political
conditions within that country or group of countries and to be more
volatile than the performance of more geographically diversified
funds. When you sell your shares of a fund, they could be worth more
or less than what you paid for them.

The following factors may significantly affect a fund's performance:

STOCK MARKET VOLATILITY. The value of equity securities fluctuates in
response to issuer, political, market and economic developments. In
the short term, equity prices can fluctuate dramatically in response
to these developments. Different parts of the market and different
types of equity securities can react differently to these
developments. For example, large cap stocks can react differently than
small cap stocks, and "growth" stocks can react differently than
"value" stocks. Issuer, political or economic developments can affect
a single issuer, issuers within an industry or economic sector or
geographic region, or the market as a whole.

FOREIGN EXPOSURE. Foreign securities, foreign currencies, and
securities issued by U.S. entities with substantial foreign operations
can involve additional risks relating to political, economic or
regulatory conditions in foreign countries. These risks include
fluctuations in foreign currencies; withholding or other taxes;
trading settlement, custodial and other operational risks; and the
less stringent investor protection and disclosure standards of some
foreign markets. For example, many foreign countries are less prepared
than the United States to properly process and calculate information
related to dates from and after January 1, 2000, which could result in
difficulty pricing foreign investments and failure by foreign issuers
to pay timely dividends, interest or principal. All of these factors
can make foreign investments, especially those in emerging markets,
more volatile and potentially less liquid than U.S. investments. In
addition, foreign markets can perform differently than the U.S.
market.

The following information replaces similar information found in the
"Investment Details" section on page P-25:

The NORDIC economies are dependent on the export of natural resources
and natural resource products. Efforts to comply with the EMU
restrictions by Finland, Denmark and Sweden have resulted in reduced
government spending and higher unemployment. Norway has elected not to
join the EU and the EMU and, as a result, has more flexibility to
pursue different fiscal and economic goals. In addition a small number
of companies and industries represent a large portion of the market in
each of Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden.

"Investment Details" section on page P-26:

ISSUER-SPECIFIC CHANGES. Changes in the financial condition of an
issuer, changes in specific economic or political conditions that
affect a particular type of security or issuer, and changes in general
economic or political conditions can affect the value of an issuer's
securities.

A fund could be adversely affected if the computer systems used by FMR
and other service providers do not properly process and calculate
date-related information from and after January 1, 2000. FMR has
advised each fund that it is actively working on necessary changes to
its computer systems and expects that its systems, and those of other
major service providers, will be modified prior to January 1, 2000.
However, there can be no assurance that there will be no adverse
impact on a fund.
