Background
Settled as early as 1000 B.C., Samoa was "discovered" by European explorers in the 18th century. International rivalries in the latter half of the 19th century were settled by an 1899 treaty in which Germany and the US divided the Samoan archipelago. The US formally occupied its portion - a smaller group of eastern islands with the excellent harbor of Pago Pago - the following year.

    .as is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for American Samoa. It is administered by AS Domain Registry.

    There is no restriction on the nationality of registrants, and many .as names are registered to and used by people, companies, and organizations with no connection to American Samoa. "AS" or "A/S" is a suffix indicating a joint stock company in some countries including NorwayDenmark and Czech Republic, so this TLD gets some use by companies of this sort.

Through Ås runs both European route E6 and European route E18 (the two largest highways of Norway), and many of the inhabitants commute to Oslo, the capital of Norway.
