Once upon a time, in the land of fire and ice, of volcanoes and glaciers, magic and mystery, three unicorns set out on an Icelandic adventure. 

In 1898, Guam was captured and ceded to the United States. It’s an American territory where the citizens cannot vote (no electoral votes), but they do have a congressional delegate (who also cannot vote). Due to the island’s location in Micronesia, across the International Date Line, it is the first place the sun rises each day in the United States.

Hence, where America’s day begins.
