History
[edit]I've taken a quick look around elsewhere, but I can't find a date for the founding of Apia. It was there by the 1850s, though. [1] Aridd (talk) 15:04, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
- Britannica says, in its article on Samoa: "By the 1850s a foreign settlement had sprung up around Apia Harbour." Aridd (talk) 19:05, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
The Pool by Somerset Maugham
[edit]Isn't this the place of the story The Pool by Somerset Maugham? --Ved from Victoria Institutions (talk) 17:29, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
Catholic cathedral
[edit]The Catholic cathedral was demolished last month. Might be good to insert. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.176.77.173 (talk) 23:56, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
