What are the names of the two Samoan islands?

The Two Samoas are American Samoa and Western Samoa. Western Samoa is consisted of the two islands Upolu and Savaii. Between those two islands, Savai'i is the largest.It is NOT called WESTERN SAMOA. Just Samoa. There are seven islands in total in Samoa. But only 3 of which are occupied by Samoan people. The largest is Savaii, followed by Upolu. Then you have Apolima (which is the 3rd inhabited island), Manono, Nuulua, Nuutele, Namua and Fanuatapu.Well, some people, such as I, say "Western Samoa" when referring to Western Samoa.Well people such as yourself and anyone else who does not know should read up on their countrys' history. It's NOT called Western Samoa anymore and hasn't been called that since the Prime Minister and government changed its official name in the early 1990's. It's official name is now SAMOA.

How long could you extend Christmas by flying through time zones?

Assuming no speed restrictions, from the beginning of Christmas Day on the Line Islands of Kiribati and in Samoa (UTC+14) until the end of Christmas Day on Baker and Howland Islands (UTC-12) is 50 hours. However, since Baker and Howland Islands are officially uninhabited, some consider the westernmost time zone to be UTC-11, which includes American Samoa, Midway and Niue, shortening the total duration of Christmas Day (or any day) to 49 hours.


Has any country changed its time zone recently?

In November 2013, the State of Acre, Brazil and the western half of the State of Amazonas, Brazil switched from UTC-4 to UTC-5. They are now on the same time as Peru, Colombia and Ecuador. Haiti started observing Daylight Saving Time in 2012. At the end of 2011, Samoa and New Zealand's Tokelau Islands moved the International Date Line from west of the islands to east of them. In other words, they changed their time zone from UTC-11 to UTC+13. The International Date Line now passes between Samoa and American Samoa.
