> NORTHERN MARIANAS
>
> The Northern Marianas are situated at 15 degrees 8'North and 145 degrees
43'
> East about 200km Northeast of Guam. They consist of the three main islands
> Saipan (with the capital Susupe), Rota and Tinian which are all of
volcanic
> origin. The climate is tropical wet and hot, the temperatures fluctuate
> between 22 and 28 degrees centigrade throughout the year and the raining
> period is between July and September.
>
> The Portuguese sailor Fernao de Magalhaes (aka Magellan when serving for
the
> Spanish) discovered this island group in 1520/1521. He called them Islas
de
> Ladones (in English: Thieves Island). This unattractive name is based on
the
> fact that many things vanished from the ships while they traded with
locals
> from the island. After the islands were handed over to Spain in the 17th
> century the island group was named after Queen Maria Ana.
>
> During WW1 German soldiers built a lighthouse and a church with the ruins
> still being visited. More than 70.000 US Marines landed on the islands in
> June 1944 during WW2. Only a few weeks later the Japanese commanders
Nagumo
> and Saito committed Harakiri after losing a battle on July 9, 1944. Only
> 2.000 of 32.000 Japanese soldiers survived! The Japanese propaganda was
> cause for several thousand inhabitants to jump off the 'suicidal cliff'
300m
> a.s.l. Today the Marianas belong to the US Commonwealth Territories and
the
> residents are US citizens with no right to vote.
>
> The main island Saipan has the most beautiful sand beaches thus making the
> tourism the most important source of income avant selling kopra or
fishing.
