The Hawaiian islands were formed by volcanic activity at an undersea source called the Hawaii hotspot.
Earth's outer crust is made up of tectonic plates that move over the surface of the planet. Volcanoes will form in areas where these plates come together. A hotspot is caused when volcanoes form in the middle of the plate where magma rises upward until it erupts on the seafloor.
Therefore, the Hawaiian islands were formed by a hotspot occurring in the middle of the pacific plate.

The population of the state of Hawaii as a whole is about 1.4 million. Some islands are completely deserted, such as the smallest island of Kahoolawe. Other islands like Oahu have about one million.
The total area of the state of Hawaii is 11,000 square miles. Again, the islands vary. For example, Kahoolawe is only 45 square miles.

The first people to live in Hawaii were the Polynesians. They sailed from other pacific islands about 2,000 years ago.
Japanese, Dutch, and Spanish explorers stopped at the islands in the 1500s, but the rest of the world didn't know about the islands until James Cook landed there in 1778.

The name "Hawaii" came from Hawaiki, the former name of Raiatea, an ancestral home of Polynesians.

The Kilauea is the most active volcano on Earth. It is located on the southeast side of the big island.
Major eruptions started in 1983 and have yet to show any signs of slowing down since.
in 1990, an eruption destroyed the town of Kalapana.
It also forms a part of the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Sections of the park have closed and reopened. Officials warn visitors to be prepared for unexpected closures.
