Guam is located at the southernmost point of the Mariana Islands in the western Pacific Ocean, and its official languages are Chamorro and English. In 1950, the United States declared the island as an "unincorporated territory" and placed it under the jurisdiction of the US Department of the Interior. Therefore, the island is a US overseas territory, and US registered trademarks can automatically extend protection to the island without the need to apply for separate protection in that region.
