The political union of Samoa (an independent state previously known as Western Samoa) and American Samoa (a US territory also known as Eastern Samoa), both of which are part of the Samoan Islands, has been proposed ever since their current status was established under the Tripartite Convention of 1899. In 1919, the former German Samoa expressed a desire to unite with American Samoa.
