Bougainville, in the eastern Solomon Islands chain, was originally part of Papua New Guinea – as the result of a chain of historical accidents, rather than any rational exercise in nation-building. Asecessionist revolt beginning in 1988 was eventually defeated. A later and more peaceful movement led to independence, as part of the overall settlement which created the United Republic of New Guinea. Today the Republic of Mekamui is not a member of the Pacific Rim Alliance. Nearby PRA members such as Australia and New Guinea barely tolerate the situation, and might intervene if local politics turn unfriendly.
