Guamanians
Mariana territory residents
Guamanians are people from Guam, a U.S. territory in the western Pacific Ocean.
The indigenous Chamorro people make up a significant portion of the population, though Guamanian encompasses all residents regardless of ethnic background: Guamanians are U.S. citizens by birth.
The term appears in discussions of Pacific Islander demographics and military affairs, given Guam's strategic importance.
