Answer: The forced annexation of the islands as a U.S. territory after the overthrow of the Hawaiian monarchy

Explanation:

Before 1893, Hawaii was ruled by a monarch, the last of which was Queen  Liliuokalani. A strong leader, she was tired of the crippling influence of American businesses on the Hawaiian people and so wanted to establish a stronger monarchy to deal with the Americans.

American businessmen found out and using bribery and force, removed her from the throne in 1893. They then applied to the U.S. for annexation the next year. Under a new president in 1898, this was given support and passed through Congress such that Hawaii became a U.S. territory in 1900.

Do you think it is important today for the senate to have more stability than the house of representatives?
anzhelika [568]
The Senate is appointed by a state's legislature and not directly elected by the electorate, with each term lasting six years, whereas representative terms run for only two years. With the benefit of more time, the Senate is more stable meaning that decisions can be followed through on; this also has its pitfalls meaning that Senators don't reflect, always, the current mood of the country. With that said, I think that the Senate should have relatively more stability than the House of Representatives, but perhaps, should be re-elected every 3 years, not 6.
