Unlike the Big Island the volcanoes in Oahu are extinct so it no longer erupts. The Big Island volcanoes are dormant and active so some are sleeping and the rest are still spewing out lava. Another difference between both islands is that Oahu has more beaches; however, the beaches in the Big Island are still
Hawaii’s political economy went through some major changes. The development of plantations and tourism paved the path for how Hawaii’s economy is today. I will discuss how tourism, ethnicity, gender and education both constrain and enable opportunities in contemporary Hawaii.
A small archipelago off the northwest coast of Britsh Columbia is known as the “islands of the people.” This island is diverse in both land and sea environment. From the 1700’s when the first ship sailed off its coast and a captain logged about the existence, slow attentiveness was given to the island. Its abundance, in both natural resources physical environment, and its allure in the concealed Haida peoples, beckoned settlers to come to the island. Settlers would spark an era of prosperity and catastrophe for the native and environmental populations.
The territory finally became a state in 1959, just ahead of Hawaii. Now, Hawaii is an archipelago, a chain of islands, located in the Central Pacific. Unlike Alaska, annexing Hawaii was due to United States imperialism. Around the middle 1800s, American began to migrate to the islands of Hawaii to start businesses, especially with sugarcane and pineapple. At that time, the islands were ruled by Queen Liliuokalani in a monarchy.
When he landed at Honolulu, Ball describes how he approached the "splendid view those high volcanic mountains that constitute all of the higher parts of all these Pacific Islands" (Traveler John Ball visits Hawaii in 1833). He describes the islands being 14 miles long on average and the height of the mountains being around 3,000 feet high. The climate of the tropical islands, unlike the contiguous states, was very high in temperature. When Ball landed, he met a Hollander who had been studying the climate the past four years before 1833. He mentioned that the lowest temperature in Hawaii 70 degrees and the highest being 85 degrees (Ball). Honolulu was the principal harbor visited on those islands which means that it was a stopping place or port for all vessels going to China (Ball). Studying Hawaii, Ball noticed a great deal of different cultures living on the islands.
Hawaiian Navigation How did the Polynesians find their way to Hawaii, over two thousand miles from any other land? Was it over population at home, or political turmoil? Whatever reason for leaving, these people used amazing knowledge and skill of the ocean and of the sky to navigate them to this new land. They faced the unknown and braved the wide-open ocean for long periods of time. The real focus in this paper is on the navigation techniques that they used in these voyages throughout the Pacific.
While walking down the beach, the white, warm sand mushes between your toes. The sun’s radiant rays beam off your glowing skin. The sound of waves crashing blocks out the external world. There is no other place like the gorgeous tropical islands of Hawaii. The wide range of flowers, cuisine, and wildlife makes it one of the most diverse places on Earth; however, the unappealing aspects Hawaii makes it one of the most dangerous in the world.
“If all of this seems long ago and far away, it is worth remembering that the past is never past.” (Faulkner cited in Ellison, P.274)
During 1893, the significant problem for the annexation of Hawaii dealt with Hawaiian sugar planting companies. Possibly if Hawaii chose to become a region of the United States, most of this industry could circumvent the McKinley tariff. The McKinley tariff produced a disastrous outcome on Hawaii. Hawaii had obtained the interest of American businessmen in the profitable sugar trade. Since the Federal Government presented liberal terms to the sugar planters, the convention of 1849 and 1875 American businessmen accumulated large prosperity in the islands. In 1890, United States Congress enacted the McKinley Tariff, increasing imported prices on sugar. This procured a frightful impact on the sugar producers in Hawaii who, as an unambiguous decision of the McKinley tax. The McKinley Act eliminated all crude sugar being shipped into the United States, which dislodged Hawaiian sugar planters of their exempt status. Numerous of the farmers obtained if Hawaii were to be annexed by the United States, the tariff matter would easily disappear, and concluding Hawaii would no longer exist as a foreign country.

Hawaiian is unique among the fifty states, especially in regards to its native music form, which is still preformed, and captivates audiences even today. Hawaiian chanting, music, and dance are not only key parts of life on the island, but have also become cultural icons as well as profound symbols of nature and religion in Hawaii. Hawaii has a rich history, beginning with the early settlers from Polynesia who brought their traditions and religions to Hawaii. Over the years, the inhabitants took those traditions and adapted them to their new home, creating the definitive culture that, even with Western influences, still is a captivating force within the society.
The Island of Maui of the Hawaiian Island is the second largest island. The Hawaiian island includes a series of coral atolls, the North-western Hawaiian Islands, and the eight main Hawaiian Islands which are Kahoolawe, Maui, Lanai, Kauai, Ni’haul, Oahu, Molokai, and Hawaii.
The Hawaiian people can survive, even if that means temporarily leaving Hawaii and returning when they have more money. Hawaii, particularly Oahu, is not a cheap place to live. Uprooting from home never feels great, but there is a whole wide world out there, Hawaii is such a tiny place. Leaving for a while is not the end of the world, and Hawaii will still be here.
