Guam, Island territory in western Pacific Ocean, United States.
The 210-square-mile landmass features limestone plateaus in the north and volcanic hills reaching 1,332 feet at Mount Lamlam in the south.
The United States Navy captured Guam from Spain in June 1898 during the Spanish-American War when Spanish officials mistook the warship gunfire for a salute.
The Chamorro people, of Malayo-Indonesian descent, maintain their traditions alongside English and Chamorro as official languages in this multicultural Pacific community.
The international airport connects over one million annual visitors to Tumon Bay's hotels, while the duty-free port status encourages manufacturing operations.
The brown tree snake introduction in the 1940s caused a substantial reduction in local bird populations, creating specific environmental challenges for the island.
