Thanks for giving it a shot, Gray! Not it though....
Need more clues?...thought I had 'nuff...maybe not..?
Lady leader...I believe this country has.......though she is not called 'president'.....
The first settlers here were Eastern Polynesians.....
A Dutch explorer is named to have first come upon the island...though he and his mates were killed by the natives.... (presumed so..)
Later...another European explorer, well known, visited the island.....and was also credited for it's discovery......... Can't give his name...though you will know it when you find the mountain.
