So they say. It is a colony. They colonised it virtually displacing the
locals.


Pretty much every human inhabited location is the result of some other group
being displaced or conquered, and often it was done many times in the same
location by different groups. Hawaii itself was a unified group of
kingdoms. By your reasoning, most of the world is a colony. Hawaii is a
state, the majority of residents including those of Polynesian ancestry
support remaining so.
