anti-colonial movements in the South Pacific  

Définition

  • From the beginning of Western contact with islands of the South Pacific, there have been anti-colonial actions that were characterized by Westerners as acts of simple savagery or cannibalism. On first contact with Westerners, the people of the South Pacific suffered great losses in numbers due to epidemics of Western diseases, and the superior firepower of Western guns and cannons overcame native forces.
