The Landing of Captain Cook at Tanna
A history that includes bitter colonial rivals Britain and France sharing power for a century, this archipelago of 83 islands was known as the New Hebrides.
Prior to independence in 1980, James Cook gave it this name during his expedition in 1774 because of dark, rugged islands reminded him of the Hebrides group, off Scotland's west coast.
