U.S. government grants constitute the main source of revenue; subsistence farming and fishing are the principal economic activities. It is a republic in free association was the U.S., and has one legislative house; its head of state and government is the president. The islands were probably settled by people from eastern Melanesia some 3,500 years ago. They were colonized by Spain in the 17th century and came under Japanese rule after World War I. They were captured by U.S. forces during World War II, and in 1947 they became part of the U.N. Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, administered by the U.S. The islands became an internally self-governing federation in 1979. In 1982 the Federated States signed a compact of free association with the U.S., which is responsible for Micronesia's defense until 2001. In the late 1990s, the republic was struggling to solve its economic difficulties.
