About this deal

The first humans arrived in Tonga around 1000 B.C. The islands’ politics were probably highly centralized under the Tu’i Tonga, or Tongan king, by A.D. 950, and by 1200, the Tu’i Tonga had expanded his influence throughout Polynesia and into Melanesia and Micronesia. The Tongan Empire began to decline in the 1300s, descending into civil wars, a military defeat to Samoa, and internal political strife that saw successive leaders assassinated. By the mid-1500s, some Tu’i Tongans were ethnic Samoan and day-to-day administration of Tonga was transferred to a new position occupied by ethnic Tongans. Tonga is a predominantly Christian country. This was brought about with the arrival of the British when Captain James Cook first arrived in 1773 then made 2 additional visits until 1777. After this,British Wesleyan Methodist arrived in Tonga and started to convert the Tongans to Christianity. It was only in 1831 that they converted the chief Taufa'ahau Tupou, who, in 1845, would then become King George Tupou I.
