Palauli

Palauli

Palauli is a district and village of Samoa, with a population (2001 Census) of 8,984. It consists of two sections on the southern side of Savai'i. The capital is Vailoa i Palauli Samoa.

The paramount title of this district is Lilomaiava, which is conferred in the capital of Vailoa, Palauli. As part of the election process, Vailoa must consult with Safotu (Gagaemauga). Safotu is the northern base of the Lilomaiava title in Savaii.

Lilomaiava carried the Malietoa title into Upolu, a name given to Lilomaiava after defeating the Tongan Moncharchy in a gaming challenge. Malietoa in the Tongan language means strength and courage.
