How did US get Hawaii and Alaska?
Alaska became a part of the US when Russia badly needed some money and gladly took up a guy named Seward on his offer of buying Alaska for a relatively cheap price.

Therefore, spending US money and resources on acquiring a money-draining chunk of land was not readily accepted by the citizens of the United States. However, after gold was discovered in Alaska, the territory suddenly became a good place to have - there were valuable resources that could bring more wealth to the country.
