I have been in Guam, Puerto Rico and Samoa and have held high bids on
licenses for all of them I think including the North Mariana Islands.
I am well aware they are part of the US.
And yes I am sure we do have slavery within two miles of where I live
but not the official Republican sanction type they have in the North
Mariana Islands. Ours is more clandestined and individual in nature.
And I do like chile.
