The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN , ) is a regional intergovernmental organisation comprising ten Southeast Asian states which promotes Pan-Asianism and intergovernmental cooperation and facilitates economic, political, military, educational and cultural integration amongst its members and Asian states.
 Since its formation on 8 August 1967 by Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, and Thailand, the organisation's membership has expanded to include Brunei, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, and Vietnam.
 Its principal aims include accelerating economic growth, social progress, and sociocultural evolution among its members, alongside the protection of regional stability and the provision of a mechanism for member countries to resolve differences peacefully.
 ASEAN is an official United Nations Observer.
 Communication by members across nations takes place in English.
The League of Nations (abbreviated as LN in English, "La Société des Nations " ] abbreviated as SDN or SdN in French) was an intergovernmental organisation founded on 10 January 1920 as a result of the Paris Peace Conference that ended the First World War.
 It was the first international organisation whose principal mission was to maintain world peace.
 Its primary goals, as stated in its Covenant, included preventing wars through collective security and disarmament and settling international disputes through negotiation and arbitration.
 Other issues in this and related treaties included labour conditions, just treatment of native inhabitants, human and drug trafficking, the arms trade, global health, prisoners of war, and protection of minorities in Europe.
 At its greatest extent from 28 September 1934 to 23 February 1935, it had 58 members.
United Nations Security Council Resolution 399, adopted unanimously on December 1, 1976, after examining the application of the Western Samoa for membership in the United Nations, the Council recommended to the General Assembly that Samoa be admitted.
The League of Nations Union (LNU) was an organization formed in October 1918 in the United Kingdom to promote international justice, collective security and a permanent peace between nations based upon the ideals of the League of Nations.
 The League of Nations was established by the Great Powers as part of the Paris Peace Treaties, the international settlement that followed the First World War.
 The creation of a general association of nations was the final one of President Woodrow Wilson's Fourteen Points.
 The LNU became the largest and most influential organisation in the British peace movement.
 By the mid-1920s, it had over a quarter of a million registered subscribers and its membership eventually peaked at around 407,775 in 1931.
 By the 1940s, after the disappointments of the international crises of the 1930s and the descent into World War II, membership fell to about 100,000.
The Honours and Awards System of Samoa has its basis in the Merit Act 1992/1993 and the Honours and Awards Act 1999.
 From 1914 to 1962, Samoa was governed as the Western Samoa Trust Territory by the United Kingdom and New Zealand.
 During this time, awards of the British honours system were made to select individuals.
 For example, the first Prime Minister of Samoa, Fiame Mata'afa Faumuina Mulinu'u II was made a Commander of the Order of the British Empire and Le Mamea Matatumua Ata, a framer of the constitution of Samoa, was made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire on the New Zealand list in the 1960 Birthday Honours.
The unification (or re-unification) of Samoa (or Western Samoa), an independent state, and American Samoa, a US territory, both parts of the Samoan Islands which share ethnicity and culture, has been raised since the first half of the 20th century, following division of the territories by the Great powers (see Tripartite Convention).
 In 1919, Western Samoa desired to unite with American Samoa, as already stated in Paris.
 However it was instead incorporated as the Western Samoa Trust Territory under British administration from 1920–1946 and New Zealand administration from then until 1962.
 The "Inter-Samoan Consultative Committee" was established in 1955, to promote cooperation between the two.
 Richard Barrett Lowe, governor of American Samoa (1953–56), stated that it was decided that reunification with Western Samoa was not to be discussed at the Committee.
 In 1969, a political commission in American Samoa rejected the unification with independent Samoa.
The 1996 Western Samoa rugby union tour of New Zealand was a series of rugby union matches played during May and June 1996 in New Zealand by the Western Samoa national rugby union team.
The Occupation of Samoa – the takeover and subsequent administration of the Pacific colony of German Samoa – started in late August 1914 with landings by an expeditionary force from New Zealand called the "Samoa Expeditionary Force".
 The landings were unopposed and the New Zealanders took possession of Samoa for the New Zealand Government on behalf of King George V.
 The Samoa Expeditionary Force remained in the country until 1915 but its commander, Colonel Robert Logan, continued to administer Samoa on behalf of the New Zealand Government until 1919.
 The occupation of Samoa represented New Zealand's first military action in the First World War.
The 1988 Pacific Cup was the fourth edition of the Pacific Cup, a rugby league tournament held between Pacific teams.
 The tournament was hosted by Western Samoa and eventually won by the New Zealand Māori side, who defeated Western Samoa 26-16 in the final.
The coat of arms of Samoa takes its inspiration from the United Nations, as New Zealand administered Western Samoa first as a League of Nations Mandate and then as a United Nations trusteeship until the country received its independence on June 1, 1962, as Western Samoa.
 Samoa was the first Polynesian nation to reestablish independence in the 20th century.
 The background is cross-hatched with a grid like the United Nations arms, most of the other elements are duplicated on the national flag.
