MrDaddyLongLegs, txhurl, I hope you don’t mind me butting in!

I know a little about American Samoa, but Samoa, not so much. I got curious and looked it up:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samoa

The country has a proud and spirited tradition; the national anthem is “The Banner of Freedom”:

(English translation)

“Samoa, arise and raise your flag, your crown!
Samoa, arise and raise your flag, your crown!
Look at those stars that are waving on it:
This is the symbol of Jesus, who died on it for Samoa.
Oh, Samoa, hold fast your power forever.
Do not be afraid; God is our foundation, our freedom.
Samoa, arise: your flag is waving, your crown!”

How cool is THAT???!!!
