Lau Taveuni Rotuma (Open Constituency, Fiji)

Lau Taveuni Rotuma Open is a former electoral division of Fiji, one of 25 open constituencies that were elected by universal suffrage (the remaining 46 seats, called communal constituencies, were allocated by ethnicity). Established by the 1997 Constitution, it came into being in 1999 and was used for the parliamentary elections of 1999, 2001, and 2006. The electorate covered the Lau Islands, Taveuni and some of its outliers including Rabi Island and Kioa, and the remote dependency of Rotuma.

The 2013 Constitution promulgated by the Military-backed interim government abolished all constituencies and established a form of proportional representation, with the entire country voting as a single electorate.

gollark: Mine too.
gollark: With the other mods I at least have to expend a bit of intellectual effort on setting up a small production chain to make gravel and feed it to sieves and craft pieces into ore (and then my entire ore processing system is quite complex but that's not needed).
gollark: Exactly!
gollark: The solar panels are just multiblocks which sit there making arbitrary amounts of power for no particular reason. There's a void *resource* miner which is just the void ore miner but for grass and obsidian and stuff, which is also a boring way to avoid making any production for diverse arbitrary resources you might need but is also required for the ET stuff because it makes "mica".
gollark: The advanced ones are an add-on.
