note = "Funding Information: Colonial ambitions brought foreigners from the United States, Russia, France, England, and elsewhere into the Pacific. Exposure to foreign diseases, resource exploitation, war between non-Pacific nations, and nuclear testing changed the Pacific and the lives of its inhabitants. The United States ultimately dominated the northern Pacific. Hawaiʻi was annexed by the United States in 1898 and became a state in 1959. Guam, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands are United States territories. Three independent nations (Palau, Republic of the Marshall Islands, and Federated States of Micronesia) are freely associated states of the United States. The Compact of Free Association (COFA) provides financial support to these nations, allows the United States military to operate in their regions, and permits citizens of these nations to live and work in the United States as lawfully present migrants and even serve in the United States armed forces.
