I Traveled to the American Island Closest to China

We travel to Guam, an American territory in the Pacific, and explore its strategic location between the United States and Asia. We examine the island’s history under Spanish, Japanese, and American rule, visit areas connected to its military presence, and learn about the Chamorro people and local culture. We also discuss Guam’s political status, its limited voting rights, and its importance amid rising tensions involving China, Taiwan, and the wider Indo-Pacific region.
