In 1891, there were several significant events related to annexation, particularly concerning Hawaii. The Newlands Resolution, passed in 1898, is when Hawaii was formally annexed by the United States, but growing American interest in Hawaii began earlier.

In this period, particularly around the late 19th century, the U.S. was increasingly involved in Hawaii due to economic interests, including sugar production, and strategic military considerations. The presence of American missionaries and businessmen in Hawaii played a crucial role in influencing the local politics and moving towards annexation.

In 1891, Queen Liliʻuokalani ascended to the Hawaiian throne. She attempted to establish a new constitution that would restore power to the monarchy and limit the influence of foreign interests, particularly those of American planters. This movement contributed to tensions between her government and American business interests, ultimately leading to her overthrow in 1893 and the subsequent annexation of Hawaii.
