马里亚纳群岛的位置

马里亚纳群岛英语:Mariana Islands)——直到20世纪初还被称为莱德隆群岛(Ladrone),西班牙语意为“强盗群岛”,为麦哲伦所命名,北太平洋上南北纵列的15座火山岛和一些珊瑚岛组成。源自日本附近延伸的海底山脉,马里亚纳群岛位于海底山脉南端;马里亚纳群岛最南至关岛,总长1565英里,总面积396平方英里。

葡萄牙航海家麦哲伦于1521年首次发现马里亚纳群岛,1667年西班牙声明了对该群岛的主权,并直接使用西班牙王后玛丽亚娜的名字命名。美西战争之后,最南的关岛割让给美国,其余岛屿(称为北马里亚纳群岛)廉价卖给了德国。第一次世界大战中德国战败,北马里亚纳由国际联盟交给日本托管。第二次世界大战后,北马里亚纳由美国托管。1986年11月,美国承认北马里亚纳获得美国自治邦地位,居民获得美国公民权。

The Mariana Islands (also the Marianas) are a crescent-shaped archipelago comprising the summits of fifteen mostly dormant volcanic mountains in the western North Pacific Ocean, between the 12th and 21st parallels north and along the 145th meridian east. They lie south-southeast of Japan, west-southwest of Hawaii, north of New Guinea and east of the Philippines, demarcating the Philippine Sea's eastern limit. They are found in the northern part of the western Oceanic sub-region of Micronesia, and are politically divided into two jurisdictions of the United States: the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands and, at the southern end of the chain, the territory of Guam.
