The Kingdom of Tonga
Located in the South Pacific, squarely within the Polynesian Triangle, lies the Kingdom of Tonga. While there are many islands and several countries within that region, Tonga has a unique history among them. The Tongans were one of the most dominant cultures in the Pacific, ruled an extensive sea-based empire, and were one of the only people in the Pacific who were never technically colonized by Europeans.
