minus-squarehomesnatch@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 month agoWestern Samoa is no longer… And how is it part of the US?
minus-squareAngryCommieKender@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 month agoI was thinking of American Samoa. Edited
minus-squareAngryCommieKender@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·edit-21 month agoYou try invading it, and see who’s Army, Marines, Air Force, and Navy shows up to defend it.
minus-squarehomesnatch@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 month agoI’ll give that a shot… Does that mean the US also owns much of Europe and any country in the UN?
minus-squareAngryCommieKender@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 month agoNo, they are separate countries. American Samoa isn’t. It isn’t a state, but neither are Guam and Puerto Rico. They’re still part of the US.
minus-squarehomesnatch@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 month agoMy bad, I looked up Western Samoa and got redirected to regular Samoa not American Samoa… Hopefully the Kender is not too angry and won’t “borrow” all my stuff.
minus-squareAngryCommieKender@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 month agoNo worries! Apparently conflating Samoa and American Samoa is just happening today!
