German forces seize Samoa 1899. German Samoa (Deutsch-Samoa) was a German protectorate from 1900 to 1914, consisting of the islands of Upolu, Savai'i, Apolima and Manono, now wholly within the independent state Samoa, formerly Western Samoa. Samoa was the last German colonial acquisition in the Pacific basin. In 1899 after the Second Samoan Civil War the Samoan Islands were divided by the three involved powers.
