This is one of the most incredible things I've ever heard; I don't believe it

Fiji's military takes control of nation (from Star Tribune)

Fiji has an army!!!

Fiji.....

has an army....

They need to defend themselves from run amok 'Girls Gone Wild' on spring break?

They have a population of around 900,000. That would be equivelant of Hennepin County in MN having their own standing army. It doesn't say, but I wonder what percentage of the population is in the military?

I wonder if they've ever done battle against Pago Pago; the war for tourist dollars must be pretty intense.

According to the general who's in control now, he warned the Aussies from intervening militarily. So does anyone wanna take bets on which army would win:o)
