Answer:

The territory that was annexed by the United States in 1898, five years after planters there overthrew the leader and requested the US to annex the territory is Hawaii.

Step-by-step explanation:

The annexation by the United States of the islands of the Hawaiian archipelago occurred on July 7, 1898, and was the result of a process of growth of commercial interests that the United States had in Hawaii. Basically what the growers were looking for was that the sugar originated in Hawaii did not have entrance fees to the United States, but this process evolved towards the territorial annexation and later statehood on the part of the United States of that sovereign nation.
