Anything you want. But in Tonga they have a specific way of showing respect. What puts Tongans apart is that RESPECT for tongans is a big thing. For tongans there are different catergories of respect. There are rules in Tonga that you must obey & by sticking to them, you would be fine. And when you stick to them you shall do whatever you want in Tonga. BUT, if you give one wrong move & DISRESPECT someone, thats when everybody will come running after you with a weapon. So you doing whatever you want depends on what you do & how you act.
Is Tongan and Samoan the same?
No! They're two completely different ethnic groups. Samoans are from a country called
'Samoa' in the South Pacific, hence the word 'South Pacific' (Australasia) meaning Samoans come from a different continent from where Africans are from.
Basically comparing a Samoan to an African is like comparing the English to the Chinese.
Obviously, they're not the same.
Always well; forever good. "How are you, man?" "Mauoli!"

What country is Tonga and Samoa in?
This is a stupid divisive question (or at best, a lazy one).
But to answer it, both groups of islands are polynesian, beautiful and relatively unspoilt.
Both countries are fiercely patriotic and extremely religious.
Both take about the same time to get to from most destinations.
Both will welcome visitors with open arms and old fashioned hospitality and service.
So toss a coin or pick a number and ENJOY.
Oh, and whatever you do, do NOT walk through a village in either country during evening prayers.
The staffs the men hold - the men who are standing along the side of the road at set intervals - those staffs are NOT decorative.
Don't say you weren't warned...
HAHAHA! I could NOT have said that any better.
Anywho, it would actually depend on what you're looking for and what you like. Both are similar yet different.
This is a stupid question.
What ocean or sea is Tonga near?
The pacific ocean. Tonga is one of the many beautiful pacific islands.

How was the leader of Tonga chosen?
Chiefs are not selected as may be the case in other Polynesian societies. Also there are no longer any "High Chiefs" as there were in the past, but they have been replaced by Nobles which is pretty much one and the same. To become a Noble, one has to born into Hou'eiki (Chiefly) class and then be appointed a Noble title by the reigning monarch. Social Mobility in Tonga is rare.
