history

Dom André Doutel, ruler of Samoro (1899)

At the beginning of the 18th century, the Dominican Manuel de Santo António proselytized in Samoro and converted the local Liurai to Christianity. When the ruler of Wehale concluded an alliance with the Dutch with the Treaty of Paravicini in 1756 , the kingdoms in Belu that were subordinate to him were also to join the Dutch. But many refused and stuck to the alliance with Portugal . Samoro was one of them.

The kingdom of Samoro is also listed in Portuguese lists from 1769 and 1868. The area of ​​the Samoro Empire was significantly larger than that of today's Sucos. Soibada and the empire of Laclubar also belonged to it.

Governor José Pinto Alcoforado de Azevedo e Sousa (1815–1820) also had oil searched for in the kingdom of Samoro.

The naturalist Henry Ogg Forbes visited Samoro in 1883. Together with the Liurai's son, he was allowed to climb the over 2000  m high Sobale . To Forbes' displeasure, he was not allowed to collect any plant samples there, as the mountain was considered sacred ( lulik ).

politics

In the elections of 2004/2005 was Luís Batista (Baptista?) De Jesus elected Chefe de Suco and in 2009 re-elected.
