In pirate lore, there is an area of the sea known as the "Maraquan Circle." In the Maraquan Circle, it is rumoured that storms arrive out of nowhere, navigation equipment doesn't work correctly, and ships vanish without a trace.
The Maraquan Circle is between Mystery Island, Krawk Island, and Maraqua. It should be noted that Mystery Island and Krawk Island are 240 kilometres apart, Krawk Island and Maraqua are 330 kilometres apart, and Mystery Island and Maraqua are 270 kilometres apart. The Maraquan Circle, according to legend, is defined as the largest possible circle that fits entirely within the triangle formed by those three islands.
What is the area of the Maraquan Circle, in square kilometres? Please round to the nearest hundred, and please only submit a number! (For example, if the answer is 5176 square kilometres, only submit the number "5200".)
