I got 8 or 9 notifications with earthquakes over M5 magnitude with different coordinates in that area. Half of them were populated like this one while the other half was un-inhabited.
 
I was woken up at 04:15h and felt a slight earthquake while in bed... few second vibration..

Sure enough we had two mini hits:

I didn't know that place and that it's part of the US, but it's interesting. They had a garment industry with worker protection standards much lower than in US mainland so had lower production costs but could call it 'Made in the US'. Japanese civilians died from jumping off a cliff because they where afraid of US troops in WW2. There is Birth Tourism where pregnant foreigners give birth there to make their children US citizens. The Bombers that bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki took off from Tinian. The Islands were controlled by different nations, like the Spanish, the Germans, the Japanese and the Americans.
