I would like to see the solution of VeldesX´s question...
Samoa is wrong, because it wasn´t bought from spain.
Nauru is too wrong, wasn´t bought too, and was later under control of three nations (GB, AUS, NZ).
New-Guinea wasn´t bought, later controled by Australia
So, is there any right solution? Or was it a nonsens question?

Sorry Cristiano, you're going to have to wait your turn to ask questions.
The rules are simple, if you answer a question correctly it becomes your turn to ask the next question. If we don't folow that rule the thread becomes chaotic. It is the turn of Reichskolonialamt to ask a question. If you get it right you may ask one question.
Cheers
Chris

Christiano, don´t be so hectically. And, when it will be your turn: ask one question after the other, not three together
Your first question, the island which was attacked by Germans and Japaneses is Nauru. The german ship "Komet" bombed it in december, 1940.
My question: This gouvernor of a german colony was planned to go to Berlin to lead the Kolonialabteilung (Department of colonys?), but he had "some problems" during the last months, so the chancelor took another man - a bank manager.
What kind of "problems" had this gouvernor to struggle with?
(Please excuse my humble english )

These question is not to difficult.
Yes, i know that baker is Dernburg, and the governor is Jesco von Puttkamer.
"The Reichstag also forced the government to re-call the Governor of the Cameroons, Jesko von Puttkamer, who was accused of brutality towards the natives and mishandling public funds.49 The first major restructuring and improvement of the German Colonial Service in 1907 was to be to a large extent due to the criticism of governmental policies by the Reichstag and its exposure of misgovernment in the colonies. Not only did the Reichstag concern itself with these public colonial scandals, but it also asserted itself through its control of all colonial funds from the construction of railways in the colonies to the building of a governor’s residence in South West Africa.50 Despite the Emperors’ considerable residual powers and the Governors’ relative freedom from homeland interference the Reichstag had gained a substantial influence over the last twenty years."
