"Norfolk Island is a small island in the Pacific Ocean located between Australia, New Zealand and New Caledonia, 1,412 kilometres directly east of mainland Australia's Evans Head, and about 900 kilometres  from Lord Howe Island. The island is part of the Commonwealth of Australia, but it enjoys a large degree of self-governance. It has 2,300 inhabitants living on a total area of about 35 km2. Its capital is Kingston."
