Probably the major discovery of the explorer and sea captain James Cook was the islands of the Hawaiian chain. He was later killed in a battle with natives.
A major reason Americans supported Hawaiian statehood was the strategic and economic significance of the islands, particularly following World War II. Many believed that Hawaii's inclusion as a state would enhance national security in the Pacific and bolster economic opportunities, especially in tourism and agriculture. Additionally, the growing movement for civil rights and equality contributed to the push for statehood, as it symbolized the recognition of Hawaii's diverse population and culture within the United States.
Captain James Cook initially named the Hawaiian Island the Sandwich Islands after the Earl of Sandwich. John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich, at the time the First Lord of the Admiralty and Cook's superior officer, was one of Cook's major sponsors.
The islands called the Azorez are governed by Portugal. These are nine major islands that are found in the northern Atlantic ocean.
