283:, although she had been called Princess since the 1860s. After her brother, Prince William Leleiohoku, died, she was proclaimed Crown Princess of Hawaii and the heir presumptive to the throne of Hawaii. In 1887, she attended Queen Victoria’s Golden Jubilee along with her sister-in-law, Kapiʻolani. For the first time the Hawaiian royalties were treated as equal to their European counterparts, attending dinner in the arms of the future Emperor Wilhelm of Germany, and also granted audience by Queen Victoria. Celebrations were cut short by troubles in Hawaii, as the foreign population of Hawaii forced the king to sign a new constitution, known as the Bayonet Constitution. This constitution greatly restricted the monarch’s power and derived the vote from the non-landholding Hawaiian commoners. Further troubles were the debts Kalakaua had brought on to Hawaii. Her brother was a shadow of his former self when he left Hawaii for the last time to seek medical aid in San Francisco. Kalakaua died and she came to the throne as Liliʻuokalani. She was the first Queen Regnant of Hawaii, and she would never guess that she would be its last. Few people had been placed in her situation. She inherited nation greatly in debt and racially divided. The native believed she would follow in her brother’s steps that Hawaiians were first. The foreigner expected that she remain a constitutional monarch, or in other words a puppet. She attempted economic reforms cut her salary in half in face of the bankrupted treasury. Even this was enough, and when the U.S. removed foreign tariffs in the sugar trade because of the McKinley Tariff, the foreign population greatly wanted Annexation to the United States. Another difficult situation was the plea of a new constitution by the native population. In January 17, 1893, she was overthrow by the Committee of Safety. She temporarily relinquished her throne to "the superior forces of the United States". She probably hoped that this event would have been like the Paulet Affair during Kamehameha III’s reign, and like Great Britain had done, the United States would reinstate her to the throne. This did not happen. She encouraged her people not to take up arms because did not want a single drop of blood spilled in her cause. During the 2nd Wilcox Rebellion, weapons were found in her flower beds at Washington Place. She was tried and imprisoned. She formerly abdicated under the threat that six of her subjects will be executed. She was released in 1895 but forced to remain in Hawaii. The Republic of Hawaii under the President Sanford Dole had succeeded the Provisional Government, but still harbored hopes for annexation to the U.S. She traveled to Washington D.C. to speak for her people and country, against annexation. The petition which she presented did nothing to help her people’s cause. In 1898, when the Spanish American War broke out, President McKinley recognized the strategic value of Hawaii and supported a congressional resolution for annexation. On the day of annexation, she and her closest friends and family stay shuttered up at Washington Place. She would live out the rest of her life as a private citizen of the U.S. Territory of Hawaii. She died in 1917 and with her went one of the greatest figures in Kingdom of Hawaii. Her greatest legacy was the Liliʻuokalani Children's' Trust build upon her love of children and hopes that her people will survive on without the rule of the alii.
259:, whose dislike of the House of Kamehameha could be clearly seen throughout his life, she was surrounded by them, and throughout her early life she was considered a part of the royal court. She attended Royal School, a boarding school ran by missionaries and formerly named Chief's Children School, along with fifteen other royal children, and she and thirteen other were considered to be eligible heirs to the throne. After Royal School closed, she finished her education at a day school. Excelling in Western etiquette, mastering the English language but also preserving her knowledge of her own language, she finished her education at eighteen and was easily the most accomplished young woman in the islands. A few of her suitors included the future monarch,
558:, I believe the agreement they reached was a reasonable one. When editing the list, I, too, noticed many words that many mainlanders would not be familiar with. I believe that the words now on the list are fine, because they're educational and informative to mainlanders but they have also become assimilated into the English language (at least, they have in the isles). It's a great idea to split the list into two. My only fear is that the list would be extremely short. However, if it's feasible, then I say, let's go for it! Regarding

Her mother-in-law always looked upon her as a non-Caucasian and as someone who she was not going to accept into her house with open arms, despite the fact that she was royal. According to her private papers, Liliu wanted a family of her own but was never able to bear children. She was frequently lonely, her husband preferring to socialize without her. In her sorrow, she founded solace in music, composing over 165 pieces and one of Hawaii's most famous piece,
