Postage stamps and postal history of the Maldives : ウィキペディア英語版 | Postage stamps and postal history of the Maldives
This is a survey of the postage stamps and postal history of the Maldives. The Maldive Islands are located in the Indian Ocean and are formed by a double chain of twenty-six atolls stretching in a north-south direction off India's Lakshadweep islands, between Minicoy Island and Chagos Archipelago. They stand in the Laccadive Sea, about seven hundred kilometers south-west of Sri Lanka. ==First stamps== The first stamps used in the islands were overprinted stamps of Ceylon issued on 9 September 1906. When those ran out, un-overprinted stamps of Ceylon were used until the first stamps inscribed "Maldives" were issued on 15 May 1909.〔(Stamps of the British Empire issued during the reign of King Edward VII ) by John Williams, Royal Philatelic Society London.
