If they get the required populations they both would have a delegate to the House of Representatives. Both would be island territories Michigan Territory would be those parts of the remainder of the Michigan Territory that did not become part of states of Wisconsin, Oregon, or Alaska. That would be a few islands off the West Coast of North America that includes the Washington Islands. Remember not all of Michigan Territory upon Michigan becoming a State remained in State of Michigan or became part of the then new organized territory of Wisconsin. Some territory went into the Territory of Oregon and other parts of the remainder became part of the District of Alaska, because the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States caused remainder Territory of Michigan to be placed in the Alaska File at the Treasury Department that was not included in the territory covered by the Treaty of Washington of 1867. Remember the Congress in 1872 by the Garfield Act, made those persons born in Oregon Country [now mostly British Columbia and the remainder Territory of Michigan] collective naturalized Citizens of these United States. By the Organic Act of 1884, the District of Alaska was made up of two types of territory, viz., that territory included in the ceded territory of Russia by the 1867 Treaty of Washington and the territory "known as Alaska", viz., remainder Michigan Territory of "Oregon Country" that was placed in the Alaska File at the U.S. Department of the Treasury between 1877 and 1884 as authorized by an exchange of formal letters between the Secretary of the Treasury and the Secrtary of War in 1877. For the Territory of Hawaii it would be the remainder Territory of Hawaii excluded from the 1959 Hawaii Statehood Act. Remember, the State of Hawaii covers territory over large parts of the vast Pacific Ocean, viz., Stewart Atoll (which was added to Hawaii by the Fourth Kamahamaha in 1854) and other outlying islands that were dependencies of Hawaii under the terms of the Newlands Resolution, e.g., Arosi (near the Solomon Islands).

In this event, would Congress need to admit them or am I right in recalling that Congress already sanctioned this back in 18something. Would be amusing to see DC and Utah get an extra member in the house, and Texas one up 'em by getting 8 more senators...
