Pacific island group obtained from Germany now a us territory?
About 98% sure it was the Marshall Islands. Spain sold them to Germany in the 1800's, and I think they were awarded to Japan after World War 1, and captured by the US in World War 2. If Spain had kept this island group instead of selling it to Germany, the Marshalls would have become US territory earlier, in the Spanish-American War of 1898.
