Alaska and Hawaii
or The Last Frontier and The Aloha State
The two states that don’t border another state in these United States
Both the last two states to join the Union.
Both have a really high cost of living. This is because not only are the two desirable states to live in, but they are so isolated, so far away from most other places where most things are produced. The high cost of shipping causes everything in both states to be much more expensive. That said, Alaska has a lower cost of living compared to Hawaii.
Perhaps because of the high cost of living, both states are slowly losing residents.
Both are dominated by their largest cities. Anchorage, in Alaska, and Honolulu in Hawaii. Around half of all Alaskan residents live in the Anchorage metropolitan area, and more than 2/3 of all of Hawaii’s residents live in the Honolulu metropolitan area.
Both have dramatically diverse and beautiful natural scenery, and both have dramatically diverse rainfall patterns. It’s kind of crazy actually. Ok, so in southeast Alaska in the coastal mountain ranges there, they can often get more than 200 inches (508 cm) of precipitation a year! While just south of the Alaska Range they get about 60 inches (152.4 cm) a year, 12 inches (30.5 cm) a year in the interior, and less than 6 inches (15.2 cm) a year in the North Slope.
#alaska #hawaii #geography
Which is better? Alaska or Hawaii?
Which two states should I compare next?
Edit: I accidentally said "Honohulu" instead of Honolulu. I make mistakes.

Hawai'i is better
You should compare Arkansas and Missouri.
And I know you mostly dislike the mainstream, does that apply to most things?
Hawaii
Definitely Hawaii
I remember the time Hawaii thought I launched a missile at them. Good times, good times
NOT FOR THEM NO
😯
Hello supreme leader how is your day today?
OH! HELL NO NO body touches MY ALOHA Pineapples AND Coconut State
Well I see
everyone listening Mr. Beat pronounce Honolulu: thats a crime
I was crying
Oh geez here we go again. 1/2 the comments.
@@iammrbeat haha sorry Mr. Beat, I love your videos they are addicting!
Honohulu
😆
As an Alaskan. I wish I could afford to live in Hawaii in the winter and Alaska in the summer.
That sounds wonderful honestly.
Go to a town like Hilo, HI. Will rain a fair amount but south in places like Keaau have houses for cheap
As an Hawaiian, I hate it here
@@djmonaco39 sorry to hear that!
Quite a few homeless people do that. As you know many out of state workers come here. Myself included. I live in Florida. Had a regular job before covid-19. Anyway we have 2 or 3 guys who were homeless or borderline homeless sleeping people couches in Hawaii and they're working here for this season. Even tho you save money a philosophy is just sleep outside in Hawaii.. why spend it??? Pay $3/$400 night for a hotel... Why when it's 75/80 degrees in winter and you can sleep outside and pay $50/ month to take a shower at a health club. If I didn't already have a home in Florida I just might go to Hawaii in the winter and kind of live outside
Me from Hawaii: ight let’s see
Me when I hear him say Honolulu: ight ima head out
another local here
frikkin guy didnt even try with the pronunciation but there was actually some cool facts I didn't know so give it a try
He said mana kea lmao that hurts
Yeah I was like 👀 okaaay then
That is triggering, I used to also live in Hawaii but moved to New England. And I lived in a town RIGHT next to Honolulu, legit 10 miles away.
@@cooked_ryce there ya go, fixed
If you put your finger randomly in a map of Alaska, there’s a good chance no human as ever stepped foot there.
ha yeah definitely, but I guess it depends how big the map is
@@iammrbeat And how big your finger and the human in question is :\
?? humans have been living all over so-called alaska for thousands of years do you seriously believe there's any part they haven't been to??

He's clearly never seen Dragon Ball Z..
@@BatuSmoka808 Ye
I was born in Manhattan, NYC. Manhattan is about 34 square miles. It has about double the population of Alaska. Alaska is about 665,000 square miles.
Really goes to show the difference in population density.
@Christian Powell is that why the radical extremist eskimos are taking over Alaska
That's why the death tolls from our earthquakes are usually so low. We are so few and spread out; we make a poor target.
Imagine if we didn’t buy Alaska. It would have been really unsatisfying to have 49 states.
Or we would have just made Puerto Rico a state
@@iammrbeat Or Washington D.C
@@iammrbeat Or American Samoa to add another Pacific Island state
There's a lot of failed statehood movements even within the contiguous U.S., so either we'd be at 50 or less or more depending on how history could have gone.
@@jetstream6389
1967? Why are you saying that year? Canada was made pretty much independent with the Statute of Westminster, 1931 (becoming totally independent by 1982). However, if you made a typo and meant 1867, Canada wasn't independent then and was just a locally autonomous part of the British Empire.
Hona Hulu? *Ok This is Hulu’s Property now*
Hulu will rise
Honda Hulu the creators of Honda and Hulu.
@@iammrbeat is that the correct pronunciation? If so I wasn’t aware.
FRANDY IS DAT U
Oh no I’ve been caught yes it’s me from Force Thirteen
This man really just said "honoHULU" Its honoLULU
also, the way he pronounced Kamehameha and Liliuokalani
@Demon Slayer 561 THANK YOU!
Literally how do you mess up hololulu
Shit *honolulu
He kinda went H-A-N-A-H-U-L-U
When it’s H-O-N-O-L-U-L-U
We are losing locals because it's friggen expensive....you can almost move anywhere else and save a ton of cash
Part of that is because 99% of all of Hawaii's resources is IMPORTED. Hawaiians need to be made to work the land again and maybe the economy will return to how it was in the 80s and 90s. A large chunk of Oahu is the Dole pineapple and C&H Sugar fields that are no longer used as shipping became too expensive, so SO many acres of land goes unused today... except for the unkept cane spider population.
And both of their largest cities are military cities and major port cities.
@damirmukas32 Laugh all you want. It's true.
@@TheGeoScholar HAHQHAHHQJSHQHSHDHWHAHAHHAOEOWJCOE9CI yea its True
Why didn’t Mr.beat comment on this?
The big island is actually a really diverse place geographically. Tall mountains, rainforests, desert, you name it.
Hawaii is more geographically diverse than it is given credit for.
Yeah, technically no desert, but I get what you mean!
@proud american it is desert tho. Desert doesn’t necessarily mean sand. It just means a dry arid place without vegetation.
@@coby4480 Desert may have particular definitions that the dry parts of Hawaii don't quite meet. For example, wikipedia notes that the Kaʻū desert on the big island isn't a true desert because it gets just slightly too much rain to meet that definition.
@proud american If it is dry, it doesn't matter what kind of land or material is there, it is considered a desert. Antarctica is a desert.
Bonus fact: Hawaii technically has the tallest mountain in the world
Technically it is Mauna Kea, one of the mountains on the island of Hawaii (when measured from its base on the sea floor).
Technically
Yes but that isn’t how you measure mountains. If you did, all mountains would be considerably higher with Mt Everest still being the highest.
Lumbago
Everest reaches the highest altitude while Mauna Kea is the tallest when measured by its base on the sea floor
This is probably unpopular but like can we compare US territories? They deserve recognition..
Yeah I agree
All should be states
@@billcrosby209 I agree but sadly there are many reasons why they can’t be states :(
@@jordancalimlim3020 apart from political power gains Puerto Rico the Samoa’s and DC could’ve been a state by now
@@beesechurger7799 DC and Puerto Rico are very possible candidates. DC is more likely because they pay federal taxes and already vote for US president. American Samoa is still not an organized territory. It’s also the only jurisdiction in the USA that don’t have US citizenship.
Still waiting for Georgia and Republic of Georgia .
Eventually
@@iammrbeat Khachapuri vs. Peaches
@@iammrbeat Don't forget South Georgia in the South American Islands
Oh please do that mr. beat
I have a friend who lived in Tblisi for 12 years.
Other than their detachment from the rest of the US, Alaska and Hawaii have virtually nothing in common.
Yep, I figured most of the video would be differences
We're both plagued by shitty tourists, natural disasters, we're connected by an ocean current that makes it easy for boats to go between. Also, legislature from the early 1900's screwed both states! Everything going to Alaska has to go through Seattle, and everything going to Hawaii has to go through San Fransisco.
Ahhh... the Jones Act!
Half the population of Fairbanks is in Hawaii every winter...
Born and raised Alaska , Hawaii resident for the past 5 years. Both are unique and diverse culturally . As different as they are I find so many similarities living in both .
Hawaii has an interstate
You should have mentioned that strange one
We need to make a roadway connecting California to Hawaii
@@JohnSmith-hd2tl They have three interstate highways.
we actually have 3 titled: H1, H2, and H3. all of which are on Oahu.
@@keonigomes9947 going double the speed limit is amazing there said my friend lol 🤣
@@truesonofliberty3267 k
Fun facts:
Attu used to have native americans living there, but they were relocated during WW2
During WW2, Attu was invaded by the japanese, and was the only continental american territory in foreign hands since 1814
Yep, thanks for sharing that!
I believe there was quite a few of the aleutian islands with Unangan people until after world war 2. And they still can't go back now
And Kiska
I thought I was having a stroke when I heard Honohulu
It’s a shame Hawaii and Alaska get overlooked so much as states when they’re clearly two of the most unique and fascinating states in the country. Awesome vid, Mr Beat!
Thank you Captain, and agreed that they overlooked!
Every Hawaii local hearing him pronounce Honolulu and Kamehameha: no.
I could let the islands and places slide, but these were butchered. I’m sorry my dude, I know you probably tried.
He tried stop being mean
@@acezszx I wasn't, and I said he tried in my original comment, but ok.

Not particularly, I was better before I moved here. A semester of fa'aSamoa launched me in the stratosphere. A woman named Kalani California side, I thought she was Italian, the singer Jerry Colonna. I was seven.
Yeah. Yikes. If you’re going to put the time and energy into making a video like this, at least research some pronunciation!!
I’m from hawaii, listening to him pronounce the names makes me lose brain cells
Two of the most interesting states!
Agreed!

@Melanie , What about Alaska?
THATS MASTER ROSHIS MOVE
Alaska is America's version of the Land Of Fire And Ice. More glaciers and volcanoes than most other states.
Than ALL other states. :D
@@iammrbeat I was just being modest. I made a video about Alaska having the most volcanoes. That Ring of Fire is something fierce.
i live in alaska the summer is fun and a lot to do but I don’t like the cold dark winters and i don’t care what anyone says now Biden is president the economy is going to shit
@@TheGeoScholar The meek shall inherit the earth. "Alaska, having the most volcanos" "That ring of fire is something fierce" I agree to disagree Mr. Beat. Volcanos are the waste and recycle system of the underworld. The recycling means, more land is created with the flow. Hawaii is a volcano. The ring of fire is actually the line of fire, and they build fake power plants on top of the natural electromagnetic energy and call it nuclear, then they charge us for it. We build it with tax dollars, Millions. if there is an incident, 600K to stop it, 500K to store it. 1B to keep it running. Can you see the irony? FYI, Alaska is thousands of miles from Russia.
I see Mr Beat has never watched Dragon Ball...
The pronunciation of Kamehameha makes me sad
I brought that up to him when working on the video. The real insult was when he showed footage of GT talking about anime when he was comparing Tokyo and Seoul.
Really happy I found your channel, I loved social studies and politics in school, but hated doing homework and assignments. Your videos are easily digestible and very entertaining to watch when I’m just playing a video game or just laying down. Thanks for doing this man. It’s very very appreciated.
As an Alaskan, I think I would love to live in Hawaii with all that warm weather and lovely beaches
This was one of the best state comparisons yet!
Hey man love the video! Got a lot of Hawai’i’s history correct and thank you so much for helping show people who’ve probably never seen it before the culture of my beautiful home. However, I would’ve appreciated some correct pronunciations. It’s not hard, especially with the internet, to find how to say things correctly and it would go a long way towards stopping the mocking of the Hawaiian language and culture in American culture that’s been happing since since Hawai'i was discovered. Also, the Constitution signed in 1887 is known as the Bayonet Constitution because King Kalakaua was forced to sign it under literal threat of death by Bayonet. This video also shows a distinct lack of blame on the part of the US government in the overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom whose troops were used to storm ‘Iolani Palace and de-throne Queen Lili’uokalani and while president Grover Cleveland recognized the evil deeds that happened to Hawai’i, president McKinley after him was much more in the American imperialism tradition and pressured congress to try and annex Hawai’i, failed in doing so, and eventually just took over Hawai’i from the white business owners who, backed by the US military, has taken it years earlier.
It is very difficult to make these videos. I'm a one-man show. Don't ever expect me to get it 100% right.
@@iammrbeat www.to-hawaii.com/hawaiian-dictionary.php here’s a good beginners guide to the language just in case you talk about Hawai’i again in your videos. I’d also be willing to help you on your pronunciation for future content if you’re unsure!
Well said. It is not difficult to put in the energy to learn correct pronunciation. I was interested in the content, but stopped watching because of the terrible pronunciation. It is disrespectful to the Hawaiian language.
stop nit picking so damn much, jeesh
@@skurinski How is asking for correct pronunciations and proper historical context nit-picking? Imagine if he were talking about American history and pronounced Washington incorrectly and didn’t mention the reason why the Boston Tea Party happened? It would be wrong, or at least inaccurate, and I would hope people would be willing to point it out.
Interesting fact: Mauna Kea is the world's tallest mountain measured from the surrounding terrain. It rises about five miles above the surrounding seabed. half of that difference is below the surface of the sea however. Compare with Mt Everest that "only" rises two and a half miles above the Tibetan Plateau.
Yep. I had that in my original script but cut it out. Thanks for bringing it up!
Oh
Technically, Denali is larger than Mt Everest if you measure Denali from top to bottom.
@@w3tking486 I could imagine that, the Tibetan Plateau is awfully high above sea level for a place where people actually live.
The base of Mt.Everest (real name Sagmatha) is about 7,000 ft. A real shrimp when compared to Mauna Kea.
I flew from my home state of Texas to see relatives in Juneau, Alaska a few years ago. Coolest place I’ve ever been. I’d love to see other parts of the state.
Well, one thing you missed was this: Hawaii deals more with hurricanes or typhoons than Alaska. Also, Hawaii has interregional highways in it, the H1, H2 and H3, whereas Alaska does not.
we dont get the hurricanes but we sure as heck do get hurricane force winds through out alaska , we dont have highways but we do have ice bridges lol
Yep, I also forgot to mention that marijuana is legal in Alaska but surprisingly not Hawaii!
Alaska has a couple highways as well, but not many. Also, Alaska has ice fog and other strange weather variations.
@@iammrbeat its legal for medical use but lots of people smoke it without a prescription cause nobody cares like I lived in hawaii my entire life and I didn't even know it was illegal until last year cause plenty people i know smoke it without trying to hide it much
@@bakende1103 The biggest 3 that are used the most in my opinion are; The Glen Highway, The Parks Highway, and the Seward Highway.
Nice, I’ve been waiting for this one
WOOOOOOOT
Mr. Beat. First off: I love your stuff man. You’re a big reason why I’m working towards an endorsement to teach middle school history.
Second off I would love if you did a “explain the cabinet” series. It just came up as I’m having a hard time describing the differences between the Treasury and Commerce and just thought it would be a cool topic.
Oahu has an awesome bus system. I have fond memories of bus lines 71 and 52 which brought me from the military base to malls of Honolulu through Kamehameha highway. There are two lines that even run all day, that's even better than what you can find at 'continental' US.
Line 62 and 60 take you to the North Shore via Kamehameha love that route.
Dat's what us old timers call Ben Cayetano's limo.

Minnesota winters ain't no joke. Manitoba's winters....just don't even bother.
When you pointed out that 2,600 mile gab between Alaska and Hawaii you should have probably should have mentioned that this gap is the closest Hawaii comes to any point of the USA. Alaska is the Western, Eastern, and Northernmost state while Hawaii is SOUTHERNMOST state.
14:13 "Welcome to Alaska, here's a thousand (and a bit) dollars!"
It's nice. Most people I know live in dry cabins, so having some extra cash is nice. It's actually a pretty interesting and beneficial policy, the Permanent Fun Dividend. Basically every Alaskan citizen who signs up for it, gets a share of tax money from oil mining. But, we also don't have very much infrastructure in the state, it would probably be cheaper just to give everyone a grand than to put roads out to every village.
Your president videos, and your educational videos such this one rock. I hope you, and your loved ones had a decent Thanksgiving.
Thank you. :)

Hey I live in Alaska and I would like to visit Hawai'i. A lot of people I know up here often visit down there when they get the chance. We actually have a lot in common in terms of our history, plus there's an ocean stream right between Hawai'i and Alaska that makes it pretty easy for ships to get down there or up here.
SAME!! actually im more of a local but i'd love to visit alaska!!
Mr. Beat, this was my favorite of your compared videos! The graphics were brilliant.
Thanks!
You should have mentioned the wacky weather of Kauai. One of the wettest places on earth for rain is in the center of the island at the top of the Waimea Canyon. And down to the bottom 20 miles or less away on Barking Sands you see cacti... Near desert conditions . Hawaii is amazing
Kaua’i is by far my favorite of the Hawai’ian Islands.
Oh man Kauai this island is the best

lol I figured you'd dig it. Watch out, though. You know what happened when Harding went up there.
@@iammrbeat i was actually expecting texas to have the lowest taxes.
Look up the crime rate
So, um, lack of taxes does not mean more money...did you not hear the part where he said they are some of the most expensive places to live in this country? He's not lying...It can cost $4k a month to rent a place...even is it's an apt.
@@bakende1103 of course its gonna cost more. its not even connected to the continental US. other places with very low cost of living and low taxes include Tennessee, Texes and others with no income tax.
One thing I've noticed about the 3 to 4 hours of horizon high sunlight you get in the winter months in AK, is that my friends from the south almost immediately get depressed and want to fly back to FL until summer. The winters aren't for the faint of heart, but the Iditarod and the winter activities are worth it.
2:12 The international date line bends, specifically to accommodate for this, so no, they are technically still on the same day.
Yay! I love this series!
Awesome! :D
Let’s be honest here, If Alaska qualifies as desirable to live in, it’s for a completely different set of reasons than Hawaii. Reasons like “i needed a mining job” and “I’m running from the law and Montana wasn’t remote enough”

@@stevenmilliman412 What about Michigan and Montana
This is what we've been waiting for
Hope it was worth the wait!
Thanks Mr. Beat, this was a very good video. I'm an Alaskan resident that was born and raised here and I could tell you've done some good research on my state. The only feedback I have is that I wish you were able to put more coverage on the Alaskan tribes during Russian colonization, as some pretty interesting stuff happened, such as my tribe, the Tlingit tribe being able to fight the Russians out of southeast Alaska for about two years. It was done by the warrior Katlian. It's a pretty major part of our history.
Russia is thousands of miles from Alaska, so the storyline is the same most anywhere, it's got a huge leak.
Resident living on Maui here! This video was really good! (Except for some pronunciations) this video was really well done! Mahalo! 🤙🏽
I just finished my last two states to visit in Sept '21, flying first to the Big Island and Oahu and then up to Anchorage. 6 days in Hawai'i and then 8 in Alaska. Saw as much as we could. My parents met in Alaska and that was always the draw for me to go there, the nostalgia. However, I fell in love with the Big Island. Love the people, the diversity of climate and the lack of being overrun by tourism. Now I need to go back to each and really soak it in...
Presidential elections in American history 2020 please
He waited until after the electors voted last time
It’ll be out next year, the election is still kinda going on right now.
I've been looking forward to this since your epic State flag tier video. BTW I liked your ranking of CA's flag. As a CA resident, thanks!
Mr. Beat, your videos are great.
Fun fact: Did you know the square miles of Anchorage is larger than the entire state of Rhode Island? Pretty Crazy!
@proud american Hell yeah!

Welp you might see me in real life cause of my wart
We've all been waiting for this episode.
Since I grew up in Juneau Alaska, I can confirm that it does get very warm in the summer. Also I recognized most of those buildings in the downtown sections of Juneau.
When my wife and went on our honeymoon to the big island of Hawaii it was quite interesting that one side of the island was classified as a rain forest and the other side a desert. Oh, yeah, and it snows there too!
hello, mr beat! hope you are having a nice day! :)
You too!
Thank you Mr Beat for this fascinating comparison...
Hey Mr. Beat
You should do one comparing Idaho and Montana. And I think you haven’t talk yet about Maine, Iowa, Arkansas an Louisiana, so that’s an ideia.
Thanks for your videos, they’re great.
I love how most of the Hawaii landscape pics and shots are mostly from the Big Island and Oahu, with some sprinkles of Maui
Alaska's flag easily has the most blue in it.
How about Nevada
@@cowboyjonathan3676 That would be a close second.
Not American but Libya’s flag use to have the most green out any nation in history, seriously it was originally just a plain green flag with nothing else on it. At least until the civil war and overthrew Gaddafi and they added other colors back on the flag and added the Muslim creasent moon.
@@brandonlyon730 I remember that flag. It's a shame they got rid of it.
Looks like indiana's flag honestly
Did you get a new video editor? Regardless, I like the animation in this video. A job well done, Mr. Beat!
Have to watch your videos two or three times to consume all the valuable information you include because I'm laughing so much! 😂🤣😂 You got that dry humor i enjoy! Excellent! 😂👍🏼👌🏼Edit: You just said "Did you know..." but i heard "Did Juneau..." I see what you did there! ☝🏼😂
Your videos are always so fun!
Thanks Julian!
There's no place I'd rather be, than on my surfboard out at sea. Lingering in the ocean blue, and if I had one wish come true. I'd surf 'til the sun sets beyond the horizon! ʻĀwikiwiki mai lohilohi
. Lawe mai i ko papa heʻe nalu. *Flyin' by on the Hawaiian roller-coaster ride*
Solid movie
You again
Two epic states, indeed. The Captain Cook angle is especially interesting and worth following up.
Good video! Thanks, Beat!
10:37 KA-ME-HA-MY-AH? braddah it’s Ka-me-ha-me-ha
I am part Hawaiian, born in Hawaii. I lived in Fairbanks in the 80s. I love both states lol.
As an Alaskan I have been waiting for this video for a long time
As someone who lives in the anchorage area, i can say that livingin this city or eagle rives/chugiach is the best and youll be at least within an hour drive of wasilla, one if the fastest growing cities in alaska, girdwood, a nice neighborhood witha ski resort and within 6 hours of anchorage southwards theirs a deer farm, soldotna amd homer, all great vacation destinations
This matchup makes sense, I always wonder who Mr. Beat will put up against states like Maine or Oklahoma. Cant think of of one myself.
New Jersey vs Florida.
Which one sucks more?
Suggestions for places to compare:
Flanders & Wallonia (Belgium)
Greece & Turkey
Haiti & Dominican Republic
Liverpool & Manchester
Madrid & Barcelona
North Italy & South Italy
Quebec & Louisiana (I don’t know could be fun..)
West Germany & East Germany
That Quebec and Louisiana one totally caught me off guard but I dig it. :)
@@iammrbeat Yeah, and make sure compare the frenchiness of each, such as speakers, food, music etc.
Yeah Beat get it done , haiti and DR espically
Great video! You should compare USA vs Canada
