About this deal

At one time Hawaii had a network of railroads on each of the larger islands that transported farm commodities and passengers. Most were 3ft ( 914mm) narrow gauge systems but there were some 2ft6in ( 762mm) gauge on some of the smaller islands. The standard gauge in the U.S. is 4ft 8 + 1⁄ 2in ( 1,435mm). By far the largest railroad was the Oahu Railway and Land Company (OR&L) that ran lines from Honolulu across the western and northern part of Oahu. [285] Since gaining statehood and participating in its first election in 1960, Hawaii has supported Democrats in all but two presidential elections: 1972 and 1984, both of which were landslide reelection victories for Republicans Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan respectively. In Hawaii's statehood tenure, only Minnesota has supported Republican candidates fewer times in presidential elections. The 2016 Cook Partisan Voting Index ranks Hawaii as the most heavily Democratic state in the nation. [293] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, tourism in Hawaiʻi came to a halt, which allowed the land, water, and animals to began to heal. Fish like the baby akule and big ulua have returned after years of not being around the bay. The coral reefs, fish, water growth, and limu (algae) growth was able to flourish without the heavy toll of tourism. [262]

Several areas in Hawaiʻi are under the National Park Service's protection. [56] Hawaii has two national parks: Haleakalā National Park, near Kula on Maui, which features the dormant volcano Haleakalā that formed east Maui; and Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, in the southeast region of Hawaiʻi Island, which includes the active volcano Kīlauea and its rift zones.

The five largest European ancestries in Hawaii are German (7.4%), Irish (5.2%), English (4.6%), Portuguese (4.3%) and Italian (2.7%). About 82.2% of the state's residents were born in the United States. Roughly 75% of foreign-born residents originate from Asia. Hawaii is a majority-minority state. It was expected to be one of three states that would not have a non-Hispanic white plurality in 2014; the other two are California and New Mexico.

Kauaʻi

The Hawaiian language word Hawaiʻi is very similar to Proto-Polynesian Sawaiki, with the reconstructed meaning "homeland". [e] Cognates of Hawaiʻi are found in other Polynesian languages, including Māori ( Hawaiki), Rarotongan ( ʻAvaiki) and Samoan ( Savaiʻi). According to linguists Pukui and Elbert, [22] "elsewhere in Polynesia, Hawaiʻi or a cognate is the name of the underworld or of the ancestral home, but in Hawaii, the name has no meaning". [23] Spelling of state name Hawaii ( / h ə ˈ w aɪ i/ ⓘ hə- WY-ee; Hawaiian: Hawaiʻi [həˈvɐjʔi, həˈwɐjʔi]) is an island state in the Western United States, about 2,000 miles (3,200km) from the U.S. mainland in the Pacific Ocean. It is the only U.S. state outside North America, the only one that is an archipelago, and the only one in the tropics.
