It was a German protectorate from 1900 to 1914, consisting of the islands of Upolu, Savai'i, Apolima and Manono. After 1920, the League of Nations gave it to England. After 1946, New Zealand administered it until independence in 1962. It is now part of Independent Samoa


About Western Samoa?

It is now independent and correctly known as the Independent State of Samoa. It was cared for by New Zealand after WW I until it achieved independence in 1962. In 1914 New Zeland troops ousted the Germans who had been in control of the copra and cocoa trade since 1850. Samoa should not be confused with American Samoa which was annexed by the US in 1900.
