The lovely islands of Hawaii
were discovered by the Polynesians, who gave them the name of Hawaii.
Hawaii's state flag consists of eight horizontal stripes representing
the eight major islands, and the British Union Jack. It has served as
the flag of the kingdom, republic, territory and the state of Hawaii.
The nene, or the Hawaiian goose, is the state bird of Hawaii. It was
once nearly extinct. The kukui is the state tree of Hawaii. Also known
as the candlenut, the kukui was most useful tree to the early Hawaiians
who used it for oil, light and other purposes. In Hawaii, they only use
12 letters, they are, a, e, i, o, u, h, k, l, m, n, p, w. From east to
west, Hawaii is the widest state in the U. S. It's not doubt that the
Hawaiian culture has left an indelible mark in history. From the
skillful, innovate ways of Polynesian sea, to the ancient traditions of
the Hawaiian family.
