Fiji At The Commonwealth Games
Fiji have competed in all but two Commonwealth Games since 1938, missing only 1990 and 1994, as they were not members of the Commonwealth during this time. Fiji have won fourteen Commonwealth medals across six sports.
The country is currently suspended from the Commonwealth, and has technically been banned from taking part in the 2010 Games.

Famous quotes containing the words commonwealth and/or games:
“By this unprincipled facility of changing the state as often, and as much, and in as many ways as there are floating fancies or fashions, the whole chain and continuity of the commonwealth would be broken. No one generation could link with the other. Men would become little better than the flies of a summer.”
—Edmund Burke (1729–1797)
“As long as lightly all their livelong sessions,
Like a yardful of schoolboys out at recess
Before their plays and games were organized,
They yelling mix tag, hide-and-seek, hopscotch,
And leapfrog in each other’s way all’s well.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
