Wikipedia's article on Overseas Shinto, community-edited. Reliable for the settled 1898 founding date of Hilo Daijingu, the first Shinto shrine in Hawaii, brought by Japanese immigrant communities, and for the general wartime pressure Shinto faced in America after the 7 December 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor, when Shinto was placed on the United States Attorney General's proscribed list and shrines faced suspicion and, in at least one documented case, dissolution in 1944; the article does not name a specific executive order or cite a comprehensive nationwide suppression order, and this atlas states that limit rather than filling it in, while confirming the list itself was not lifted until 14 October 1955.
