[QUOTE="Simeon_Strangelight, post: 1282567, member: 6783"] Well - happy one to you. You already have your native island back - the Japanese make it more Nippon-Hawaiian island, but close enough and I don't think you are worse off for it. Though the day was less about North American expansion/conquest than about the Columbus one which frankly toppled one lousy system. No Hawaiian would want to live there.... (except for the ones at the top who hoarded 50% of all the young women to themselves on top of cutting out hearts - guess they would have been for it....)
