NZ TERRITORIES OF COOK ISLANDS, NIUE AND TOKELAU by Kahir
Unlike Samoa which became independent of New Zealand in 1962, the Cook Islands and Niue are still formally referred to in constitutional terms as "state in free association with New Zealand" instead of "independent and sovereign state", because they retained a residual constitutional link with New Zealand in relation to citizenship. Nevertheless, the Cook Islands and Niue have full independence and sovereignty in all other domains, and the residual citizenship link is reduced to the usage of New Zealand passport and privileges of New Zealand citizens for Cook Islanders and Niueans while in New Zealand. The Cook Islands and Niue have established their own nationality and immigration regimes. Tokelau, on the other hand, is a dependent territory of New Zealand.A dependent territory, dependent area or dependency is a territory that does not possess full political independence or sovereignty as a sovereign state yet remains politically outside of the controlling state's integral area. Cook Islands is self-governing state in free association with New Zealand since 1965. The Cook Islands are fully responsible for their internal affairs; New Zealand, in consultation, retains some responsibility for external affairs and defence. As of 2005, the Cook Islands have diplomatic relations in their own name with eighteen countries. Niue is a self-governing state in free association with New Zealand since 1974. Niue is fully responsible for its internal affairs; New Zealand retains ...

Saint Helena/British overseas territory/the South Atlantic Ocean
Saint Helena - named after St Helena of Constantinople, is an island of volcanic origin in the South Atlantic Ocean. It is part of the British overseas territory of Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha[2] which also includes Ascension Island and the islands of Tristan da Cunha. Saint Helena measures about 16 by 8 kilometres (10 by 5 mi) and has a population of 4255 (2008 census). The island has a history of over 500 years since it was first discovered as an uninhabited island by the Portuguese in 1502. Britain's second oldest remaining colony (after Bermuda), Saint Helena is one of the most isolated islands in the world and was for several centuries of vital strategic importance to ships sailing to Europe from Asia and South Africa. For several centuries, the British used the island as a place of exile, most notably for Napoleon Bonaparte, Dinuzulu kaCetshwayo and over 5000 Boer prisoners. The Development and Economic Planning Department, which still operates, was formed in 1988 to contribute to raising the living standards of the people of St Helena.In 1989, Prince Andrew launched the replacement RMS St Helena to serve the island; the vessel was specially built for the CardiffCape Town route and features a mixed cargo/passenger layout.The St Helena Constitution took effect in 1989 and provided that the island would be governed by a Governor and Commander-in-Chief, and an elected Executive and Legislative Council. In 2002, the British Overseas Territories Act ...

Malvinas/Falklands War How Close To Defeat?-part01
STRICTLY HISTORICAL PURPOSES ONLY The Falklands War started on Friday, 2 April 1982 with the Argentine invasion and occupation of the Falkland Islands and South Georgia, and ended with the Argentine surrender on 14 June 1982. The war lasted 74 days, and resulted in the deaths of 255 British and 649 Argentine soldiers, sailors, and airmen, and three civilian Falklanders. It is the most recent conflict to be fought by the UK without any allied states and the only external Argentine war since the 1880s. The conflict was the result of a protracted diplomatic confrontation regarding the sovereignty of the islands. Neither state officially declared war and the fighting was largely limited to the territories under dispute and the South Atlantic. The initial invasion was characterised by Argentina as the re-occupation of its own territory, and by the UK as an invasion of a British dependent territory. Britain launched a naval task force to engage the Argentine Navy and Argentine Air Force, and retake the islands by amphibious assault. The British eventually prevailed and at the end of combat operations on 14 June the islands remained under British control. However, as of 2010 and as it has since the 19th century, Argentina shows no sign of relinquishing its claim. The claim remained in the Argentine constitution after its reformation in 1994. The political effects of the war were strong in both countries. A wave of patriotic sentiment swept through both: the Argentine loss ...

Hong Kong from High and Low
Hong Kong (Chinese: 香港; pinyin: Xiānggǎng; Cantonese Yale: Hēunggóng), officially the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, is a largely self-governing territory of the People's Republic of China, facing Guangdong to the north and the South China Sea to the east, west and south. Hong Kong is a global metropolitan and international financial centre, and has a highly developed capitalist economy. Beginning as a trading port, Hong Kong became a crown colony of the United Kingdom in 1842, reclassified as a British dependent territory in 1983, and remained so until the transfer of its sovereignty to the People's Republic of China in 1997. Under the "one country, two systems" policy, Hong Kong enjoys a high degree of autonomy in all areas with the exception of foreign affairs and defence, which are the responsibility of the PRC Government. As part of this arrangement, Hong Kong continues to maintain its own currency, legal system, political system, immigration control, rule of the road and other aspects that concern its way of life, many of which are distinct from those of mainland China. Renowned for its expansive skyline and natural setting, its identity as a cosmopolitan centre where the East meets the West is reflected in its cuisine, cinema, music and traditions.[17] The city's population is 95% Chinese and 5% people of other ethnicities.[18] With a population of 7 million people but land area of 1108 km2 (428 sq mi), Hong Kong is one of the most densely populated ...

British Overseas Territories
The British Overseas Territories are fourteen territories of the United Kingdom that, although they do not form part of the United Kingdom itself, fall under its jurisdiction. They are remnants of the British Empire that have not acquired independence or have voted to remain British territories. The name "British Overseas Territory" was introduced by the British Overseas Territories Act 2002, and replaced the name British Dependent Territory, which was introduced by the British Nationality Act 1981. Before 1981, the territories were known as Crown colonies.

Falkland Islands & British Overseas Territories
British Overseas Territories The 14 British Overseas Territories are territories under the jurisdiction of the United Kingdom (Britain). They do not, however, form part of it. Instead, they are those parts of the former British Empire that have not acquired independence, or, unlike the Commonwealth realms, have voted to remain British territories. While each has its own internal leadership, most being self-governing, they share the British monarch (Queen Elizabeth II) as head of state. The name "British Overseas Territory" was introduced by the British Overseas Territories Act 2002, replacing the name British Dependent Territory introduced by the British Nationality Act 1981. Before 1981, the territories were known as Crown colonies. With the exceptions of the British Antarctic Territory and South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands (which host only officials and research station staff) and the British Indian Ocean Territory (used as a military base), the Territories retain permanent civilian populations. Permanent residency for the 7000 or so civilians living in the Sovereign Base Areas of Akrotiri and Dhekelia is limited to citizens of the Republic of Cyprus. Collectively, the Territories encompass a population of approximately 260000 people and a land area of approximately 667018 square miles (1727570 km2). The vast majority of this, 660000 square miles (1700000 km2), constitutes the British Antarctic Territory. Britain participates in the Antarctic Treaty System ...

Hon. Christopher Weeramantry - Air date Nov. 1987
Judge Christopher Weeramantry was a Judge of the International Court of Justice from 1991 to 2000, and was Vice-President of the Court from 1997 to 2000, presiding in that capacity over several important cases before the Court, including the case on the illegality of the use and threatened use of nuclear arms. While on the court he has written numerous judgments seeking to advance the frontiers of international law and to make it more multi-cultural and future-oriented. These judgments have made a profound impact on the content and direction of international law. Prior to joining the Court, Judge Weeramantry was a Justice of the Supreme Court of Sri Lanka, a Professor of Law in Australia, and Chairman of the Commission of Inquiry which probed international responsibility for phosphate mining on the island of Nauru. The Report of the Commission led to the first claim before the International Court of Justice by a dependent territory seeking compensation for damage done to it during occupation by a trustee power. Apart from treatises on law, Weeramantry has written extensively in twenty books and over a hundred articles on such matters as apartheid, the impact of the world's religions on law and human rights, the impact of technology on human rights, third world legal problems and the philosophy of law. Judge Weeramantry is a Doctor of Laws and a Doctor of Literature (Honoris Causa) of the University of London.
