However, white Americans soon realized that Hawaii had plenty of lands to grow Sugar, and by the 1840s they saw a great opportunity to annexation. What followed was a series of turmoils and conflicts in Hawaii due to the permanent intervention of United States interest on the islands, until in 1959, Hawaii officially entered as the 50 state of the Union.
