From Habele Institute
The Compact of Free Association (COFA) or simply “the Compact” is a term for several related treaties and agreements between the United States and three Pacific Island nations. These three island groups were once part of the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands (TTPI), but are now independent nation states. The three “Freely Associated States” are the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM), the Republic of Palau (ROP) and the Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI)
