Because a Fijian commoner was accused by the Americans for burning an American house down. To solve the problems and debt to the American, the American decided to take most of the land as to payment of the loss of his house and belongings. Ratu Cakobau, a fijian chief disagreed and pleaded to the British in Levuka to do something. Instead of the American occupaying and claiming Fiji, Queen Victoria agreed to pay the damages to the American and protected Fiji from being attacked. That was how Fiji got ceeded to the UK.
