History

During the 19th century, many Australian, British, French, and German settlers settled in the territory of the New Hebrides.^[1]

In 1878 the United Kingdom and France declared all of the New Hebrides to be neutral territory.^[2]

The New Hebrides became a neutral territory under the loose jurisdiction of the Commission, established by a Convention on 16 October 1887, for the sole purpose of protecting French and British citizens, but claimed no jurisdiction over internal native affairs.
