The Solomon Islands (Pijin: Solomon Aelan) is a sovereign nation in Oceania that consists of six large islands and approximately 900 smaller islands to the east of Papua New Guinea and to the northwest of Vanuatu. It has a total land area of 28,400 square kilometers (11,000 square miles) and a population of 652,858 people. Honiara, the capital, is situated on Guadalcanal, the biggest island. The nation derives its name from the Solomon Islands archipelago, which includes the North Solomon Islands (part of Papua New Guinea) but excludes outlying islands such as the Santa Cruz Islands, Rennell and Bellona.
The islands have been inhabited from at least 30,000 to 28,800 BCE, with subsequent waves of migration, particularly the Lapita people, mingling and forming the contemporary indigenous Solomon Islanders population. The first European to see them was the Spanish sailor lvaro de Mendaa in 1568, who named them Islas Salomón. Mendaa returned to the Solomons decades later, in 1595, and another Spanish expedition commanded by Portuguese navigator Pedro Fernandes de Queirós arrived in 1606. When Captain Gibson, R.N., of HMS Curacoa proclaimed the southern Solomon Islands a British protectorate in June 1893, Britain established its area of interest in the Solomon Islands archipelago. During World War II, the Solomon Islands campaign (1942–1945) witnessed heavy action between US, Commonwealth, and Imperial Japanese troops, notably the Battle of Guadalcanal.
The then-British administration's official name was changed from "British Solomon Islands Protectorate" to "The Solomon Islands" in 1975, and self-government was established the following year. In 1978, the islands gained independence and their name was changed to "Solomon Islands" (without the definite article). Solomon Islands became a constitutional monarchy after independence. The Governor-General represents the Queen of the Solomon Islands, Elizabeth II.
