Living in Samoa
Samoa is a nation in the Pacific Ocean, comprising 6 islands. The islands of Upolu, in which the capital city of Apia is located, and Savaii, are amongst the largest in the South Pacific region. In line with this, the nations population is 196,000, which is high in comparison with nearby states. Upolu is home to 75% of these people. Like many other islands Samoa has a colonial past, but this time the usual suspects are not involved; rather, Germany and New Zealand have both ruled historically. It is a Commonwealth country however. The country has a monsoon climate with heavy rainfall from December to March in particular, and this precipitation is a key enabling factor behind the tropical forests that cover parts of the island. The size of the forests has reduced in recent years as human development has intensified. The country is a keen supporter of renewable energy sources and has the aim of producing all its energy through renewable sources by the end of the decade. Culturally, Samoa has proven highly resilient and resistant to colonial influences. Ancient rituals and mythology remain present in Samoan society, while traditional Samoan tattoos are also seen as important and applied on most residents.
