Community van Society Islands / Tōtaiete mā
The Society Islands officially Archipel de la Société are an archipelago
in the South Pacific Ocean. Politically, they are part of French Polynesia,
an overseas country of the French Republic. Geographically, they form part
of Polynesia.
The archipelago is believed to have been named by Captain James Cook during
his first voyage in 1769, supposedly in honour of the Royal Society, the
sponsor of the first British scientific survey of the islands; however,
Cook wrote in his journal that he called the islands Society as they lay
contiguous to one another.
