Hawaiʻi from kingdom to statehood: what next?

The Hawaiian islands have been inhabited for some 1,500 years, and discovered by the Europeans in 1778. Hawai`i became a Terrirory of the United States in 1898 and a State in 1959. The Hawaiian nation is currently undergoing a cultural revival and the Hawaiian language, almost extinct, is again an official language on the islands and is used as a language of instruction at some schools in the state.
