What is the largest island of the Mariana Islands?

Answer:

Answer

Guam -- 542 km

The previous answer, Honshu, is the largest Island of Japan, but it is not one of the Mariana Islands. Other islands in the Marianas are:

Agrihan - 47 km2

Aguijan - 7 km2

Alamagan - 11 km2

Amatahan - 32 km2

Asuncion - 7.4 km2

Farallon de Medinilla - 0.9 km2

Farallon de Pajaros - 2 km2

Guguan - 4 km2

Maug Islands (actually, 3 islets) - total area is < 2 km2

Pagan - 48 km2

Rota - 85 km2

Saipan - 115 km2

Sarigan - 5 km2

Tinian - 101 km2

Some websites will cite Saipan as being the largest of these islands. Saipan is the largest of the Northern Marianas (which is a Commonwealth), but not of the total chain.
