Aweida
King Aweida was a royal man in
Nauru. Before Nauru became under white rule,
they were governed by the
king who made the laws which were enforced by their own chiefs. When
Germany came on Nauru, take it over and then annexed the island to
German New Guinea, he although could hold his
sovereignty as king and kept to be the
chieftain of the
Nauruan people. Otherwise, it's not much known about him.

In the second photograph, he's standing (in the middle) before Germany's realm flag.
