New Hebrides condominium - 1953 - Queen Elizabeth II  Coronation
New Hebrides was the colonial name of a group of islands in the South Pacific that now forms the nation of Vanuatu. The New Hebrides were colonized by both the British and French in the 18th century. The two countries have signed an agreement making the islands an Anglo-French condominium, which lasted from 1906 until 1980, when the New Hebrides gained their independence.
