Why do they speak French in Tahiti?

- The French protestant missionaries were interested in changing the behavior of the Tahitian people.
- The French colonized Tahiti because they were interested in scientific exploration and the natural beauty of the island.
- The French were interested in the sugar cane that grew on the island.
- The French discovered Tahiti while pirating English ships.
