Samoa, Let God Be First
In 1899, the United States gained ownership of islands in the South Pacific Ocean that now make up the
unincorporated American territory, American Samoa. The United States flag was originally flown as its flag, and it wasn't until
1950 that the Executive Council chose an official flag design from the many submissions of local citizens.
The winning design featured an American Eagle on a red, white, and blue flag to represent and honor the United
States. The eagle holds the staff used by Samoan Chiefs called a "fue" in its right claw to symbolize wisdom. In its
left claw is a war club, "uatogi," shown to represent the power of state. Today, American Samoa natives fly this flag
as a symbol of peace and order underneath the great nation of the United States.
