12 Hawaii American interest in Hawaii began in the 1790s as Hawaii was a port on the way to China Sugar plantations were established and accounted for 75% of the nations wealth. The landowners became politically powerful In 1890, the McKinley Tariff Act passed and made it so that the sugar from Hawaii was not any cheaper then sugar from other places. Plantation owners wanted to annex Hawaii to increase their exportation of the cash crop. After a removed Queen (Liluokalani), Hawaii was annexed in 1898
