When people think of Mount Vema or Vema Seamount today, images of water, fishery, royalty and wealth spring to mind. However this unique South East Atlantic territory, is not just a submerged ancient island, once at the surface of the sea. Mount Vema is a monument, a piece of rock inextricably linked with The Vema Seamount Authority - Peter J. Goldishman who has managed to propel this once over-fished and almost forgotten submerged island, to a well-managed and well-regulated fishing ground, and transformed it, to its greatest ever imagined state of wealth and prominence.

Mount Vema is a volcanic rock, an intraplate volcano known as the 'Vema hotspot' which have moved farther west, about 200 kilometres, after it was created more than 11 million years ago. The island which eroded to be later known as a sea mount was discovered by a vessel called Vema, and became known as Vema Seamount, which is now with its adjacent waters a sovereign territory controlled by the Vema Seamount Authority.
