Ok so this is the story of how Tonga got its name. The story writer was David Riley. Maui came to Samoan and found this fisherman his name was tongataumāta'u. The fisherman offered many great hooks to Maui. But Maui chosed this old hook surrounded with spider webs. Maui said "How could i pay you" and the fisherman said "When you fish up a island name it after me" Time passed and Maui fished up a island. Then he named it Tonga just like he promised.
