Episode 1: Samoa
In All of Us Command is a new podcast where we learn about countries and their national anthems. We will be drawing each new country out of a hat and taking turns researching them. Episode 1 is about Samoa and their national anthem: "O le fu'a o'le sa'olotoga o Samoa".
For Episode 1, we will be visiting the South Pacific archipelago of Samoa to learn about their history and about their national anthem: "O le fu'a o'le sa'olotoga o Samoa". Aaron did the research this week and learned about a rogue American diplomat named Albert Barnes Steinberger, as well as the tragic story of the last years of Robert Louis Stevenson's life spent in Samoa.
