What Country do de Marshall Islands belong to?
Officially, the Republic of Marshall Islands is an independent nation in free association with the United States. In practical reality, the Marshall Islands are a self-governed protectorate of the US. Over half of the Marshall Islands GDP comes from US aid.Before 1944, the Marshall Islands were controlled by a series of European colonial powers; Spain, Germany, and Japan. During WWII, the United States Navy bombarded Japanese facilities in the Marshalls, and occupied the islands in 1944. In 1947, the Marshalls and many other formerly-Japanese controlled islands became the Trust Territories of the Pacific Islands under the auspices of the United Nations. The Republic of Marshall Islands became quasi-independent in 1986.

When did the US come to the Marshall Islands?
The United States Marines arrived on the Marshall Islands in February of 1944 towards the end of WW 2. They kept these islands for nuclear testing and later to establish the Ronald Reagan Missile Defense Test Site which today is the leading missile testing facility of the United States. This base, located in Kwajalein Atoll, is the subject of great controversy in the relationship between the Marshall Islands and the United States, as the US wishes to keep it for another 75 years without a fair and honest payment for its use. People of the Marshall Islands are suspicious of the American intentions because, as a result of the nuclear tests, many of the islands are contaminated FOREVER, and people who were exposed do not get the medical attention the United States promised. Because of the close relationship between the countries, Marshallese can enter the United States as if they were citizens and vice versa, and Marshallese youngsters fight in Iraq and Afghanistan to this day, adding a REMARKABLE twist in the unique bond of friendship between the Marshall Islands and the United States.
