Samoa's Journey 1962 - 2012 : Aspects Of History
Paperback Edition: 1
Published to coincide with Samoa's first 50 years of independence, Samoa's Journey covers subjects as diverse as the country's literature and media, its society and sporting achievements. In 1962, Samoa became an independent state, after more than half a century of colonization. The nation has
achieved much since then--it has a university, hospitals, independent media outlets, and a unique parliamentary system that incorporates significant elements of Samoan culture and tradition while retaining the principles of democracy. While Samoans are now spread throughout the world, most retain strong links to their culture and families back home. All play their part in maintaining Samoa as a proud independent nation. Samoa's Journey documents Samoa's progress as it celebrates its first 50 years of independence.
