Social History of Hawaii
The Hawaiian people's history is a short one, but is a vibrant one. The Hawaiian people's traditions and cultures changed with the contact of the missionaries and being brought into the world scene after being isolated for hundreds of years. The people of Hawaii have changed as they were exposed to new ideas and peoples. New ideas were brought into the lives of the Hawaiians as they adopted a new way of life, but they have also held true to parts of their culture that is seen and celebrated even today.
