1 Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands
истТак называлась территория в Микронезии, отданная под опеку США в 1947 по решению ООН. Охватывала 2100 островов и атоллов трех архипелагов: Каролинские острова [Caroline Islands], Маршалловы острова [Marshall Islands] и Марианские острова [ Mariana Islands]. Общая площадь океана, на которой разбросаны острова, составляет 3 млн. кв. миль (около 7,77 млн. кв. км), площадь суши около 716 кв. миль (около 1855 кв. км), население 140 тыс. человек. Первоначально состояла из семи округов, позднее сократилась до четырех административных единиц: Содружество Северных Марианских островов [Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands], Федеративные Штаты Микронезии [Federated States of Micronesia], Республика Маршалловы острова [Republic of Marshall Islands] и Палау [Palau]. Вторая и третья вступили в т.н. свободную ассоциацию с США, соответственно, в октябре и ноябре 1986, а первая стала Содружеством в составе США в ноябре 1986. Остров Палау приобрел статус независимой Республики Палау 1 октября 1994English-Russian dictionary of regional studies > Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands
