Fale may refer to several different things:
- The architectural style of some buildings in Samoa
- A small islet in Tuvalu (Pacific island)
- The main islet and city of Tokelau (Fakaofo), a Pacific atoll governed by New Zealand
The settlement of Fale predates the arrival of Europeans (whalers) in the 1820's, and subsequent actions by various groups reduced its population to under 200 by 1889, when the island group was annexed by the British Empire as part of the Gilbert & Ellice islands Protectorate.

No. They were once sisters-in-law because Diana was married to Prince Charles, brother of Sarah's then husband, Prince Andrew.
Actually, Fergie is a descendant of Georgiana Spencer Cavendish, by way of Georgiana's illegitimate daughter, Eliza Ellice. She also has a few Cavendishes in her family tree. However, since Princess Diana is a direct descendant of the Spencer family, and Fergie is descended from the daughter of a Spencer (before marriage), then in one way or another, yes... Sarah Ferguson and Diana Spencer are related. Distantly, but yes.

The North West Mounted Police (NWMP) was created in 1873. The territory it was intended to police includes what is now Alberta and Saskatchewan.
An area that size can not be policed effectively out of one central office. Therefore, the NWMP had to divide its territory into smaller areas that were "detached" from headquarters.
Commissioner George French commanded the entire police force of approximately 275 officers and men. The 900 mile Great March West of Mounted Police left Fort Dufferin on July 8, 1874.
The first "detachment" from the Great March occurred at Roche Percée (near present-day Estevan) on July 29, when most of "A" Division separated from the main column to establish a detachment at Edmonton, routing via Fort Ellice. "A" Division was under command of Col. W. D. Jarvis.

Papua New Guinea's road to independence is quite complicated.
The northern half of Papua New Guinea was known as German New Guinea after it came under German control in 1884, while the southern half was known as British New Guinea, later renamed to Papua in 1904. During WWI, the island was occupied by Australian troops to defend the British half. When the Treaty of Versailles was established after World War I, Australia administered German New Guinea, and the British part of the island came to be considered an External Territory of the Commonwealth of Australia, though it was still "owned" by Britain. The two territories were regarded as separate territories, known as 'Papua' and 'New Guinea'.
After the New Guinea Campaign of World War II, the two territories came together as 'Papua New Guinea'. Australia still administered Papua New Guinea until the country was granted full independence on 16 September 1975. Papua New Guinea's Head of State is still the Queen of England, just as Australia's is, as it remains a member of the Commonwealth of Nations.
