 * //**The State of Hawaii ( [|/həˈwaɪ.iː/] ([|help]·[|info])  or [|/həˈwaɪʔiː/] in English; [|Hawaiian]: Moku ʻ āina o Hawai ʻ i) is a [|state] in the [|United States], located on an [|archipelago] in the central [|Pacific Ocean] southwest of the continental United States, southeast of Japan, and northeast of Australia. The state was admitted to the Union on August 21, 1959, making it the [|50th state]. Its capital is [|Honolulu] on the island of Oahu. The most recent census estimate puts the state's population at 1,283,388

This state encompasses nearly the entire volcanic [|Hawaiian Island chain], which is made up of hundreds of islands spread over 1,500 miles (2,400 km). At the southeastern end of the [|archipelago], the eight "main islands" are (from the northwest to southeast) [|Ni] [|ʻ] [|ihau], [|Kaua] [|ʻ] [|i], [|O] [|ʻ] [|ahu], [|Moloka] [|ʻ] [|i], [|Lāna] [|ʻ] [|i], [|Kaho] [|ʻ] [|olawe], [|Maui], and [|Hawai] [|ʻ] [|i]. The last is by far the largest, and is often called the "Big Island" or "Big Isle" to avoid confusion with the state as a whole. This archipelago is physiographically and ethnologically part of the [|Polynesian] subregion of [|Oceania].

Hawaii's tallest mountain, [|Mauna Kea] stands at 13,796 [|ft] (4,205 [|m])[|[8]] but is taller than [|Mount Everest] if followed to the base of the mountain—from the floor of the Pacific Ocean, rising 33,476 feet (10,203 m).[|[9]]**// || [|**Honolulu**] **is the largest city and** **capital of Hawaii. - I choose hawaii because i like tropical places that have coconut trees and a nice view of other parts of hawaii. hawaii is a fun place to be cause you can go to the bbeach everyday and have fun and the good thing about it is that it dosnt rain as muck as new zealand and its not really cold like antartica and it has lots of malls hope you like my sight. by katie hazlett!** ||
