Samoa,
officially the Independent State of Samoa, is a country comprising a
group of islands in the South Pacific Ocean. Previous names were
German Samoa from 1900 to 1919, and Western Samoa from 1914 to 1997.
It was admitted to the United Nations on 15 December 1976 as Samoa.
The entire group was known as Navigators Islands before the 20th
century because of the Samoans' seafaring skills. It has a
population of 177,000. The capital and major city of Samoa is Apia. |
