IMMEDIATELY before Hawaii achieved statehood in 1959, it was a Territory of the US. However, it had been a sovereign constitutional monarchy until 1893, when the last Queen, Lili'uokalani, was deposed by a group of American sugar planters and missionaries, with the support of the US marines. A few years after her overthrow, the islands were annexed to the US.

ALASKA was also a "territory" until May 1959. Statehood requires a minimum population. We moved to Alaska from California in 1954. I recall eating breakfast, listening to the radio, and hearing the Governor announce: "We are now a state". We kept eating breakfast - there were no street parties as for the Queen's Silver Jubilee in Britain in 1977. My parents still reside in Alaska and are respected old timers or "sourdoughs".
