No, Samoa is not a part of the US, it is an independent country. Well depends on which one, it's separated. There's Western Samoa and then there's American Samoa. Western Samoa likes to call themselves Samoa. Kinda confusing.
What country did the US get Samoa from?
Can you make sense? Samoa's a country, and the US got American Samoa from the country of [Actual] Samoa, maybe?Eastern Samoa and Western Samoa (as they were referred to in colonial times) were all one country to begin with. During the 1st world war, America occupied American Samoa and Germany occupied Western Samoa. So I suppose you're right 187baby, the US got (part) of Samoa from Samoa.

It used to be one whole country. Samoa. Until world war I when the US occupied American Samoa for its naval base in Pago Pago, and Western Samoa was occupied by Germany, and then NZ. Now, Samoa (no longer called Western Samoa) is an independent country, whereas American Samoa is still a US territory (but is governed by Samoan representatives and a Samoan Governor). So now there is American Samoa and Samoa.

Yes, us Samoans consider our country developed. I suppose it all depends on how the world relates to us, and us to the world.

They are the same in that Samoans in American Samoa and Samoa (once Western Samoa) have the same heritage. However, American Samoa is a US territory while Samoa is an independent nation. So they are in effect two different countries.
