Overview of Sao Tome and Principe (note on "Java")

São Tomé and Príncipe is an island country in west-central Africa, consisting of the islands of São Tomé and Príncipe and the surrounding islets, with the capital, São Tomé, located in the northeastern part of São Tomé. Located on the Gulf of Guinea, about 200 kilometers from the African continent, the country was colonized by Portugal in the 15th century and became independent in 1975, with Portuguese as the official language and an economy based on agriculture (cocoa, palm oil) and tourism. It should be noted that "Java" is not a city or region of the country; Java is the main island of Indonesia, with cities such as Jakarta and Surabaya, and has nothing to do with São Tomé and Príncipe, possibly due to a confusion of names.

Kolonga, Tonga | Capital and Cultural Center of the Kingdom of Tonga

Kolonga, Tonga is a major town in the Pacific island nation of Tonga, located on the northeast coast of Tongatapu, about 20 kilometers from the capital city of Nukuʻalofa. As Tonga's cultural and historical town, Kolonga is known for its well-preserved traditional villages, royal relics and handicrafts, and is one of the birthplaces of Tonga's "megalithic culture", with centuries-old churches and ancient stone tombs. The local economy is based on fishing, agriculture (e.g. coconut and banana cultivation) and tourism, and most of the inhabitants are engaged in traditional weaving and wood carving, continuing the unique Polynesian culture. Although Kolonga is not the administrative capital, it is an important center of Tonga's religious and folklore activities, attracting many tourists every year to experience the original Tongan life, and is known as "Tonga's cultural treasure".
