Wallis and Futuna

Wallis and Futuna is a small, remote group of volcanic islands in the South Pacific, officially a French overseas territory. It consists of three main islands—Wallis, Futuna, and Alofi—and several smaller islets. The territory has a unique blend of French governance and local customs, with most residents practicing Polynesian traditions. The economy relies on subsistence farming, fishing, and limited tourism. While it uses the euro, it retains its native languages and cultural practices. Wallis and Futuna offers a peaceful, close-knit community with stunning natural landscapes but has limited infrastructure and modern amenities.
