Hagåtña (pronounced ), formerly English
Agana and in
Spanish Agaña, is the capital of the United States territory of
Guam. From the 18th through mid 20th century, it was Guam's population center, but today it is the second smallest of the island's 19
villages in both area and population. However, it remains one of the island's major
commercial districts in addition to being the seat of government.
