北马里亚纳群岛是西北太平洋上,由14个岛组成的美国岛屿地区和联邦。这包含14个马里亚纳岛群最西部的岛。其不包含岛链最南部的关岛,关岛则为单独的美国领土。
Spain made the islands part of the Spanish East Indies in 1565. In 1899 Spain ceded Guam to the United States and sold the Northern Marianas to Germany. During World War I Japan invaded the islands, and in 1919 they became part of Japan's South Pacific Mandate. After World War II the United States took over administration as part of the United Nations Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands. A new government and constitution came into effect in 1978 under when the islands obtained commonwealth status within the United States.
在建制领地中,美国版权局表示:“美国联邦版权法律适用于美属维尔京群岛、关岛和北马里亚纳群岛,但不适用于美属萨摩亚。”[1]这是因为被马里亚纳盟约第502(a)(2)条“适用于北马里亚纳,于1978年1月9日生效,美国法律于该日起事实上适用此地,“就像其适用关岛及美国多个州那样的适用”,此外“1936年维尔京群岛建制法案使版权法适用于维尔京群岛(48 U.S.C. 1405q),1954年建制法案使这样的适用永远生效(48 U.S.C. 1574(c))”[2]
