Annexation Of Hawaii.

How Hawaii Came To The U.S

• Hawaii was a native kingdom throughout most of
  the 19th century, when the expansion of the sugar
  industry (pineapple came after 1898) meant
  increasing U.S. business and political
  involvement. In 1893, Queen Liliuokalani
  was deposed, and a year later the
  Republic of Hawaii was established with Sanford
  B. Dole as president. Following annexation
  (1898), Hawaii became a U.S. territory in 1900.

The King And Queen Of Hawaii
Liliuokalani
Kalakaua
Kalakaua was succeeded by his sister after the
death of her brother Kalakaua , Liliuokalani,
who was proclaimed queen on January 29, 1891. Her
experience as Princess Regent during King
Kalakaua's nine month journey around the world in
1881 and visit to the United States in 1890 had
prepared her for her new role as Queen of Hawaii.

Could Have Done To Stay From The U.S

• The Queen could have declared martial law and
  arrested the conspirators, but she felt that this
  would begin armed conflict which would result in
  loss of innocent lives.  The Committee of Safety
  then made its move and armed companies of militia
  took over government buildings and offices.  The
  evening before, marines and sailors from the
  U.S.S. Boston were landed to keep order in
  Honolulu and their commander, Captain G.C.
  Wiltse, openly supported the Provisionals.  The
  Queen was powerless.

• Finally on January 17, 1893, the Queen faced the
  inevitable and surrendered under protest.  On
  January 31, Minister Stevens, at the request of
  the Provisional Government's advisory council,
  raised the U.S. flag over Honolulu.  Annexation
  was thought to be a mere formality.  President
  Cleveland's administration concluded that the
  monarchy had been overthrown by force with the
  complicity of the U.S. minister

• Iolani Palace was the official residence of the
  Hawaiian Kingdom's last two monarchs--King
  Kalakaua, who built the Palace in 1882, and his
  sister and successor, Queen Liliuokalani.
   During the monarchy period, the Palace was the
  center of social and political activity in the
  Kingdom of Hawaii. Iolani Palace is located in
  the Capitol District of downtown Honolulu, Oahu,
  Hawaii,
