Answer:

We did not have to pay, or purchase it. It was formerly Japanese occupied land.

Step-by-step explanation:

Northern Mariana Islands – The UN placed Northern Mariana Islands under the control of the U.S. in 1944 with the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands (TTPI). ... The United Nations TTPI granted the U.S. control of Palau in 1947.
