No, no no! I wish people would be serious if they are going to answer a question here. The population of Maui based on the last census is about 155 thousand people, and the population for the entire state of Hawaii is about 1.3 million people, with the vast majority living on Oahu in Honolulu.

I think you are refering to state and county borders. When the east coast was settled, boundries were determined naturally by geophysical barriers like rivers, mountains, and, of course, the ocean. The west was divided into territories by people who had never been there. They just said, Kansas lies between these two parrallels and extends from Missouri to the Continental Divide (Yes, if we had waited until settlement had progressed a bit further before petitioning for statehood, Denver would be in Kansas!)

Why did Hawaii become the 50th state?
Statehood carries with it a number of advantages for any state, not just Hawaii. You get an automatic free trade agreement with all the other American states - no tariffs. And you get influence in the US government, which is probably more significant than the influence that you would be able to exert as an independent nation. In the case of Hawaii, there is also a huge US naval base at Pearl Harbor, which is economically significant. The naval base spends lots of money. And of course, there is a certain amount of security involved in being part of the US, which is the world's greatest military power.
Aloha. Answer: November 26, 1778. According to a Berkley University study, the first people to migrate here in Maui were the Marquesas. They sailed in 750 A.D. The Marqueses didn't know anything about the island. They just notice that every time their birds go to this direction and come back after several month are much fatter.
The Tahitians followed the Marquesas and brought goddesses and religion. The Tahitians introduced to the islands the kapu system, a strict social order that affected all aspects of life and became the core of ancient Hawaiian culture.
The Hawaiians were living on simple life style until Captain James Cook discovered Maui on November 26, 1778.
