520			_a"This thesis examines the partnership of Salote Tupou III and her consort Tungi Mailefihi, as rulers of Tonga in the period of 1918-41, and suggests that they were primarily traditional leaders ruling over a largely traditional society. In 1918, when she was 18 years of age, Salote Tupou succeeded to the titles of Tu'I Kanokupolu and sovereign of Tonga. The right of the Tupou Dynasty to these titles and to be rulers of the whole Kingdom was not recognized by all of the Chiefs of Tonga. It seemed likely that the factionalism endemic to Tongan society, the conflicts that had characterized the reign of Salote's predecessor, Tutou II, and Salote own youth and inexperience could lead to only one end" the annexation of the kingdom"--Abstract.
