Analyst briefing

Northern Mariana Islands: A Bundle Too Thin for a Full Profile

The available data on the Northern Mariana Islands, a U.S. territory in Oceania, is limited to a handful of economic and energy figures, with no governance or defense series at all.

Economy

Gross domestic product stood at $1.096 billion in World Bank WDI figures for 2022, with per-capita output of $23,785.75 the same year. Population was recorded at 44,278 in 2024, also per World Bank WDI — meaning the GDP and per-capita figures are drawn from an earlier year than the population count in this bundle.

Energy

Our World in Data's energy series recorded primary energy consumption at 0.0 exajoules in 2023, and both oil and gas production at 0.0 terawatt-hours in 2016.

Data gaps

This bundle carries no governance indicators (V-Dem), no military spending or personnel figures (SIPRI or COW), and no reserves or government debt series (IMF). The GDP figures carry a 2022 date, older than the 2024 population figure in the same bundle. The energy production figures carry a 2016 date, markedly older than the GDP series. Given how little verifiable material exists, this entry is kept short rather than padded with unsupported context.
