位於太平洋玻里尼西亞島群，是太平洋島嶼上僅存的君主立憲制國家。2022年1月，東加附近海域發生21世紀至今最大火山噴發，其火山灰衝上20公里高空，寬度達260公里。火山爆發後引起的海嘯更是影響到美國西岸和日本東岸。幸運的是這場天災並沒有造成太多傷亡，但火山灰使得原本就稀有的淡水更加缺乏。再加上2022年東加COVID-19疫情爆發，政府宣布延長緊急狀態，災後救難工作難上加難。經過辛苦的2022年，東加全國進入漫長的重建期。

Situated within the Polynesian archipelago in the Pacific, Tonga consists of many islands.
Although a member of the British Commonwealth, Tonga has its own monarchy and is the only surviving kingdom in the Pacific. Because the first King forbade selling land to foreigners, Tonga is the only archipelago ever invaded by foreigners in the Pacific. The people, and their language and culture are well-preserved, and it is the best place to watch humpback whales.
In recent years, due to consecutive negative GDP growth rates and the pandemic impacting tourism income, the prime minister of Tonga proposed debt restructuring to China in 2020, their largest creditor country.
