The islands are geographically part of the archipelago within the Keijinshin metropolitan area which also includes the Providenciales Bonin Islands, Tri-State Area and Dinding Island, and they are located in the Keiki region. The archipelago has an area of 915.49 square kilometers and consists of the main islands namely Yapreay Island, Fukien Islands (which consists of Jinmin Island, Vieques Island and Matzu Island) and 36 small islands and cays in the vicinity. This district has a water border with the Ssamaritan Islands district to the northwest, while it borders the collectivity of the Providenciales Bonin Islands to the southwest, the Springwind Islands to the north, the territory of Nabor Klafterschaft to the east, Dinding Island to the south and the Tri-State Area to the southeast. The city of Charlotte Amalie is an administrative center, as well as the largest city of the Yapreay and Fukien Islands district where it is located in the southwest of Yapreay Island.
The district is bilingual where Phineaner and Sangunese are the official languages of the district, and both languages are spoken together by the inhabitants of the archipelago in addition to the Yapreayan and Ashkenatzi which are their mother tongues. The islands of Yapreay and Fukien are the homeland of an ethnic group famous for its culture of same-sex relationships and male pregnancy, the Yapreayans, this ethnic group is a mixed race group originating from these islands, emerging as a result of the migration of gay and Jewish immigrants and refugees from all over the Phineonesian region and Southeast Eura to this archipelago where it was brought by Shandānø'kaílander colonists since the -164BPs. These archipelago had indigenous inhabitants before the arrival of Jewish and gay immigrants, but offer rich fishing grounds and may contain oil and natural gas reserves, and therefore important for claimants in their attempts to establish inter-territorial boundaries. Few of the islands have civilian settlements, but about 18 inhabited islands, reefs and shoals all contain structures occupied by the Phinbellan Armed Forces including the Oriental Hispanioéire Taemhwan Garrison.
The archipelago previously was the Shandānø'kaílander colony known as the Shandānø'kaílander Virgin Islands where the archipelago has been ruled from -162BP to -26BP, these islands along with the surrounding small islands were sold to the Taemhwanian authorities by the Shandānø'kaílander Empire for 18,750,000 Bellies (฿ʃ18,750,000) in the Agreement of the Shandānø'kaílander Virgin Islands in -26BP, and have since these islands officially became part of Oriental Taemhwan until today, with been part of the territorial unit of Taemhwanian Frontier Settlements Area as an unorganized and unincorporated district of the Department Yapreay Authorities subsequently becomes a new administrative district on October 1, RP 2619 after the dissolution of the terrtorial unit. The Yapreay and Fukien Islands were designated by official decree of the Taemhwanian authorities in -26BP, and officially established as organized under the Revised Organic Act of in the Yapreay and Fukien Islands in -20BP. Like other districts in Oriental Taemhwan, Yapreay Islands can elect Taemhwanian representatives who can participate in debates in the House of Majilis of the Parliament of Phinbella, and can also elect the Taemhwanian Chief Executive and President of Phinbella.
Article 65 of the Basic Law of the Oriental Hispanioéire Taemhwan provides that the Yapreay Islands are the only district with autonomous status in the Oriental Hispanioéire Taemhwan. It is the only official jurisdiction of the LGBT community in the Phineonesian region.
