Some of the most impressive feats ever achieved by any group of people have to include the explorations of the Polynesian people. Within a few hundred years of the birth of Christ and hundreds of years before the European explorers set out, these people were traveling all over the Pacific and had landed on the Big Island of Hawaii. From these explorers descended a warrior named King Kamehameha, who would united the Hawaiian islands under one kingdom. In this episode, we're diving into some of the history of Hawaii, which also includes a bit of WWII history.
