The Guano Islands Act of 1856 never posited that Guano was going to become a state. Rather, it was to be taken possession of by citizens in the name of the USA, especially areas containing Guano deposits.
<h3>Why did the United States want to take possession of the Guano Islands?</h3>
Certain parts of the island contained a form of naturally occurring fertilizer made from seabirds and bats. They were said to be very high in Nitrogen, hence relevant for agriculture.
The US currently owns 87.5 percent of the Guano Islands today.

The demand curve slopes downwards due to the following reasons
(1) Substitution effect: When the price of a commodity falls, it becomes relatively cheaper than other substitute commodities. This induces the consumer to substitute the commodity whose price has fallen for other commodities, which have now become relatively expensive. As a result of this substitution effect, the quantity demanded of the commodity, whose price has fallen, rises.
(2) Income effect: When the price of a commodity falls, the consumer can buy more quantity of the commodity with his given income, as a result of a fall in the price of the commodity, consumer's real income or purchasing power increases. This increase induces the consumer to buy more of that commodity. This is called income effect.
(3) Number of consumers: When price of a commodity is relatively high, only few consumers can afford to buy it, And when its price falls, more numbers of consumers would start buying it because some of those who previously could not afford to buy may now afford to buy it, Thus, when the price of a commodity falls, the number of its consumers increases and this also tends to raise the market demand for the commodity.
(4) various uses of a commodity
(5) law of diminishing marginal utility
