The reading that is more informative and useful for a person who knows nothing about the sugar plantations in Hawaii is Article 1 “Hawaii The Land of Many” because it involves more of the plantation life and what the laborers do, while in Article 2 it speaks about the demise of the sugar industry in Hawaii. It states in Article 1 paragraph 2 that the bulk of immigrants coming to Hawaii began in the mid 1800s. Hawaii’s sugar industry was booming hastily, and sugar plantation owners were in need of more workers. Quoted from article 1, “Disease, introduced by foreign traders, had wiped out a large population of the islands’ inhabitants.” Those who managed to elude the epidemics were reluctant to work the long hours- 10 to 14 hours a day- that…
These Hawaiian Islands have been inhabited for centuries before the first ships sailed across the Pacific. Hawaiian Islands have been shrouded in mystery since their history had been passed along vocally for centuries. Hawaiian culture hasn’t changed drastically ever since they inhabited the islands, until European and American explorers discovered the islands.

These nations have completely different history, religion, clothing, culture, and many more.…

The overthrow of Hawaii, was another dark time for Hawaii. The Hawaiian League, also known as, The Committee of Public Safety, Annexation Club, and many more names, were the people who were responsible for the overthrow of the Hawaiian throne. The Overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom was unjustified, because Queen Liliuokalani was removed unrightfully and illegally removed from her throne.

Queen Liliuokalani, was the heir to the throne after her older brother, King David Kalakaua died.…
