How Hawaii Became a State (Encore)

The United States consists of 50 states, each of which is represented by a star on the American flag.

Most of those states consist of some section of North America divided by lines on a map that separate them from other states, Canada, or Mexico.

But there is one state that is not like the others. It isn’t located in North America. It doesn’t have a land border with anything, and its route to statehood was unlike that of any other state in the union.

Learn more about the long and controversial way Hawaii became a state on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
