The agreement is divided into nine major articles that specify the details of this agreement. America returned control of the Ryukyu Islands and the Daitō Islands (also known as the Okinawa Prefecture) to Japan, if the United States Armed Forces could occupy Okinawa as well have access to its facilities. The Americans maintained a large military presence in Okinawa because its strategic location and intense fighting made it known as the "Keystone Of The Pacific" during World War II.
