The Caroline Islands include the current countries of the Federated States of Micronesia (the island groups of Yap, Chuuk, Pohnpei, and Kosrae) created in 1978, and Palau (the Palau island group), created in 1992. After World War II, it was made a Trust Territory of the United Nations with the United States being responsible for its development.
