How did Tonga rule Samoa?
....Well I heard they were at south of Savaii, wipe out all of the people and village warrior in that village...so when the Tongan king was celebrating hes birthday, the Samoans had enough, the Malietoa organize an attack, so they attack the king at hes birthday celebration at village of Solo Solo, the Tongan try to escape on their war ship, but Samoa wipe out almost all of their warrior so the tongan king didnt want to die so he say this to the samoans, malietoa especially "Malie toa Malie tau, I will return to Samoa not as a warrior but as a visitor"...so the Tongan were lucky, if my people were greedy, we would have kill the Tongan king then take control of their land in Tonga....
Why did Tonga colonized Samoa?
I'm Tongan and proud of my heritage and i must say when i was growing up my father influenced me in many aspects especially in telling me the history of Tonga. He's not a historian or a doctor in anthropology but i have to say that the knowledge he bestowed on me is the same tradition his father bestowed on him.... another thing i might add is that it is rude and embarrising for a Tongan to say to a Samoan we onced ruled you! rather i take what my father taught me humbly and with care....my father always told me that the reasons of our past will never be trufuly known until judgment day. According to oral tradition's of my father The Kingdom of Tonga around 950AD was strong, unified and very ambitious.. by that time Tonga first expanded her branches to neighbouring Rotuma.. Uvea.. Tonga had alot of fearsome warriors who were also skilled seafarers...They would sail in a double hull conoes called "kalia" that could host 100men often travelling 10 kalias at a time... my dad would say that Tongan Warriors first entered the south of savaii in a place that the Tongan warriors landed there first place of arrival thanking there heathen god "maui" for safe passage and for the blood of their about to be slaughtered enemies."Tama'tau" ac place which still exsists today in the southern part of savaii Samoa meaning in Tongan "men of war" the samoans call it "sama'tau" because the whole entire village and its warriors were slaughtered.. From there on as Samoa were not united and were a seperatists tribe nation Tonga were able to divide and conquer most parts of Samoa.... Tonga had a annual "Inasi" tribute to the King where islands from every part of the pacific and melanisia would yield there best crops to the king... Captain Cook in his visit in 1774 to Tonga noted down a festival in which he saw dark skinned and aisan like people in Tonga.... Samoa after 200-300 years had enough and where the Mailetoa family ousted Tonga rule from Samoa...The tongan king almost die, so he fear for his life and retreat, while retreating he called out "Malie toa ua malie tau, I will return to Samoan as a visitor, but never again for war"...so really the samoans could have invaded tonga but they werent selfish or greedy like the tongans....
