What is the newest us state?

Answer 1

Hawaii

Answer 2

The last state to join the USA was the island State of Hawaii; it comprises 19 islands situated in the Pacific Ocean about 2300 miles (3700 km) from the mainland. Though the islands have been a part of the USA since 1898 they constituted a territory rather than a state. It was only in August 21, 1959 during President Dwight D Eisenhower's tenure that statehood was accorded to Hawaii.

On January 3, 1959, Alaska, with a land mass larger than Texas, California and Montana combined, became the 49th state in the union. It is a large state, 1/5 the size of all the other states together, reaching so far to the west that the International Date Line had to be bent to keep the state all in the same day. It's also the only U.S. state extending into the Eastern Hemisphere.
