The Pacific Rise

The Samoans in 459 BC went to war against the rest of the pacific nations and when they won they found out just how vulnerable the other island nations were.

The Invasion of Vava'u, 459 BC
The Samoans had little land in Samoa, so because of that reason they gathered up a small army consisting of 30 spearmen and 10 stone hurlers and 21 canoes and set sail towards Vava'u. Now Vava'u had no army because there were only people there for 150 years and thought they were so isolated that nobody would be able to attack them. And since there was no resistance Vava'u fell to Samoa easily.

The Attack on Wallis Isle, 461 BC
The people of Wallis island had an small army consisting of 50 spearmen and 5 stone hurlers but the samoans built a bigger army with 70 spearmen, 20 stone hurlers and 5 axe men (axe is made of rock not metal). the battle took 2 days but eventually Wallis island fell to Samoa. the people were also forced to learn samoan.

The invention of the catapult, 461 BC
The Somoans decide to make a weapon of mass terror and developed the catapult (Europeans have already invented it and so has China).

The Fortuna Campaign, 462 BC
The Samoans were looking at Fortuna Island, scouts had just discovered it and spies said it had a mass army of 100 spearmen and 10 stone hurlers, ( which means the whole island has united under one ruler) so the Samoans made a army of 130 spearmen, 25 stone hurlers, 10 axe men and one catapult now they also developed a massive boat to carry thecatapult, the Fortunans saw a spy leave on a canoe so he warned the ruler and trained 10 more spearmen, little did they know of the catapults...   the Samoans landed a kilometre away from a seaside village. They wanted to see what the catapult could do and practically destroyed the village after 3 shots, then they marched on to another village and invaded it. As soon as the ruler of Fortuna Heard of the mass invasion force and what they called weapon of the underworld they immediately surrendered.
