The subtitle "Background as a Christian nation" has a jingoistic rather than scholarly tone because the article goes on to explain that Christianity only spread in American Samoa in the mid-20th century, which is very recent. Consider including the sub-title "The spread of Christianity" instead. That would maintain parity with the next sub-section, which is entitled, "The spread of Islam."

Also consider adding a line about continued Christian missionary activity: is it still occurring? The article does not refer to Christian majoritarian influence on politics but this may be worth commenting on briefly if it affects the Muslim community in the region.
