Hawaii became a U.S. territory in 1898 through the annexation of the Republic of Hawaii, which had previously overthrown the Hawaiian monarchy. This annexation was formalized with the Newlands Resolution, and it included the main Hawaiian Islands. The U.S. also acquired additional lands and rights, including Pearl Harbor, which became a significant naval base. Hawaii was later admitted as the 50th state of the United States in 1959.
