This whole article seems a little pointless and redundant with other existing articles. older ≠ wiser 21:08, 20 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Article title needs citation[edit]

Since there were no judicially "unincorporated" U.S. territories until the twentieth century, the article title as a category prior to the Insular Cases needs a reliable source. Both Alaska and Hawaii were initially "unincorporated", were they not? If so, they require separate treatment from the other 18th and 19th century territories.

The federal Territory of Hawaii was formally incorporated by Congress (Act of April 30, 1900, ch. 339, §§ 4–5.). Its remnant, the United States Territory of Palmyra Island, is still an incorporated territory. It's the only incorporated U. S. territory left since 1959, when the rest of Hawaii Territory became the State of Hawaii,— except possiblly the Stewart Islands (at Sikaiana Atoll) if they belong legally to the United States.2605:6000:ED0D:9E00:7D4A:62A4:6B2C:6FA4 (talk) 02:00, 19 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
