350 A.D.  - Hawaiian archipelago -  Kanaka Maoli discovered,  and settled here.

1513 - European's Balboa was claimed to have identified the Hawaiian Islands in the Pacific Ocean.

1810 - Kamehameha became recognized as a King of a Monarchy government.

1850 - Permanent Treaty of 1850 made between the Hawaiian Kingdom and the United States of America.

1871 -  The Secret U.S. Constitution was made by the bankers which changed the United States of America to the United States and the American Empire.  

1874 - Sanford B. Dole, an American supported treasonous person, wrote an article that set the stage for the claims that there were "no more Kamehameha's".  

note:  the 1850 Treaty of the Hawaiian Kingdom and the United States of America involved only Kamehameha III's - Kauikeaouli heirs and successors with the United States of America President, Secretary of State and ratified by Congress.

1881 - King Kalakaua moved to sell the Hawaiian Islands to Japan.

1883 - Ruth Keelikolani who was also claimed as the 'last of the Kamehameha's' died leaving her heir as Bernice Pauahi Bishop who was married to Pirate of the Pacific Charles Reed Bishop, a J.P. Morgan banker, formerly a poor boy who arrived in the Hawaiian Islands with his lover William Lee.  Both worked for the American Consulate and were early American spies who came to Hawaii.  Bishop was instrumental in conspiring against Hawaii's Royal Families.

1884 -  Bernice Pauahi Bishop died.  She was also claimed to be the "last of the Kamehameha's".  Charles Reed Bishop was her husband.  Bishop had only  a life interest in the Estate of Bernice Pauahi but transferred that interest to Bernice Pauahi Bishop's Trustees, most of whom were not naturalized.

Charles Reed Bishop was instrumental in calling the American military and the English military to suppress the riot involving King Kalakaua's vote versus the Kanaka Maoli supporting Queen Emma who was the true appointee by King Lunalilo.

The next of kin was Bernice Pauahi Bishop whose cousin Kalola was documented in her Probate.

1885 - King Kalakaua moved to trade the Hawaiian Islands with the United States for 8,000 acres of land in California and millions of dollars for himself, his family, and 19 members of his House of Nobles, etc.  That move was not successful.

1885 - Kalola, the next of kin to Bernice Pauahi Bishop died.  

King Kalakaua had gotten a deed from her to sign her interest in her father Kalaniulumoku to him.

Note:  Kalaniulumoku and Abner Paki were descendants of Kamehameha's son Kalanihelemaiiluna Paki.  Kamehameha's heirs existed then and their descendants exists now.

Kalola had sibling's who also has descendants/heirs existing today.  They too descended from the brother of Abner Paki named Kalaniulumoku.  

Their names were:

Alapai (k), Kaluaikau (w), Abigail Maheha (w), and Jane Loeau (w).

1891 - King Kalakaua died.  His heir was his wife Queen Kapiolani.

1893 -  Queen Liliuokalani was wrongfully, criminally dethroned by conspirators/treasonous persons.  They were supported by the U.S., England, etc. who conspired against the Hawaiian Kingdom.

Queen Liliuokalani and her subjects were under duress, stress, usurpation, coercion and maintained a neutral, friendly, non-violent nation since Kamehameha III - Kauikeaouli's reign.

1899 - First Court Case W.C. Peacock Case Exposes the Facts that there are two governments run by what everyone thinks is the United States of America.

The United States deals with nations who have treaties.  The American Empire deals with sub-nations, those treated as less than nations who have treaties.

1915 - Queen Liliuokalani was put on the throne and became "Queen for a Day" to celebrate the European's Balboa Day or the Pan Pacific Day.

The Pan Pacific celebration was an American businessmen scheme to acquire lands in Hawaii which was planned for and they used Queen Liliuokalani as a pawn for their plans.

1916 - The Aero Club/American military had set up Queen Liliuokalani to sign agreements with them.

The Aero Club was actually the U.S. Military.

1917 -  Queen Liliuokalani died.  She had signed illegal contracts and was under duress, stress, usurpation and coercion.

2015 - Research shows that Queen Liliuokalani was a successor of the Kamehameha's.  Her mother Keohokalole/Keohokalole Kapaakea was a hanai/adopted daughter of one of Kamehameha's descendants thru Kaoleioku his Oldest son.

Keohokalole/Keohokalole Kapaakea was a member of the House of Nobles, a permanent member documented by Kamehameha III - Kauikeaouli.

The Heirs of Kamehameha III - Kauikeaouli exists, including others and myself.  The Heirs of Kalola the documented next-of-kin to Bernice Pauahi Bishop who was criminally claimed, wrongfully claimed as the "last of the Kamehameha's" and am one of her descendants/heirs as well as her hanai /adopted daughter's descendant/heirs; and hanai/adopted daughter(s) of Queen Liliuokalani who was a successor.

It is for these reasons found in history, genealogies, and legal research which shows that Pirating, Pillaging, Frauds, Racketeering, etc. has progressed by an entity which is in no way part of our Royal Families through heir or successor claims.

All nations must take heed in the tremendous amounts of research from Hawaii which shows that the U.S. and the American Empire are entities created by the bankers who have been bankrupt since 1865 or the time of the American Civil War till now, making businesses off of War and continued conflicts with Innocents over time.

The claimed "successors of the Kingdom of Hawaii" is Not the Territory of Hawaii which became the State of Hawaii through President Eisenhower's Executive Order in 1959 which was opposed by my great grandmother Mele Keawe Kauweloa cousin Harold Abel Cathcart on record.

Additionally, simply stated, the State of Hawaii are Not our Royal Families successors, besides the Heirs/descendants are here and there are many of us.

Summary

The following came off the discussion by Williamson Chang/Professor Williamson Chang 

On Annexation of Hawaii, Scalia Fails Constitutionality Test

A joint resolution of Congress doesn't empower the United States to acquire another country. Only a treaty can do that.

MARCH 7, 2015·By WILLIAMSON CHANG 

Sad to see that many kanaka maoli don't know the true history....know that Premeditation has been uncovered which shows the conspiracies, the pillaging, piracy of a neutral, friendly, non-violent nation by broke ass/bankrupt nations including the U.S. and England....read http://query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9F0CE6DC1F3FEF33A2575AC0A9679C94629ED7CF for starters then read all 537 issues of the IOLANI - The Royal Hawk news on the web theiolani.blogspot.com or accelerate your learning by reading the latest Legal Notice to President Obama, Governor Ige, et. als. because the Royal Families still exist...the land owners, the true Hawaiian Kingdom exists whether anybody likes it or not...and are the only parties to the permanent Treaty of 1850 at http://theiolani.blogspot.com/2015/03/special-posting-saturday-3715.html oh by the way Scalia is bound by the U.S. Constitution because the treaty supersedes State, Federal laws....and it was locked in place before the usurpation of the American people as documented by the bankers Secret Constitution in 1871 with the information thanks to and by whistle blowers Karen Hudes, World Bank; Vladimir Putin, Russia - who denounces One World Order/New World Order, etc. which can be seen at http://maoliworld.ning.com/forum/topics/updated-chronological-history-of-our-queen-liliuokalani-by-amelia and http://maoliworld.ning.com/forum/topics/updated-chronological-history-of-our-queen-liliuokalani-by-amelia by the way appears that my letter is the only one on the whitehouse website http://www.whitehouse.gov/assets/formsubmissions/54/c1dc2d2b35964f0392b21da2d9b05b42.pdf bet you that even you don't know that the U.S.A. became the U.S. and the American Empire documented in court case Peacock vs. the Republic of Hawaii in 1899.....bet you didn't know that the treasonous persons/conspirators/pirates /pillagers also placed Queen Liliuokalani back on the throne for a day in 1915 to celebrate the European's Balboa who visited the Pacific Ocean in 1514, etc....... empower yourself with knowledge, then blast the hell out of those who lie.......and by the way spread the truth and deny that the entity House of Representatives turned conspirator, treasonous persons supported by the U.S. and the American Empire, turned Provisional government, then Republic of Hawaii, then Territory of Hawaii, and State of Hawaii by U.S. President Eisenhower's executive order, are successors to our Hawaiian Kingdom as claimed in "THE MATTER OF THE PETITION OF THE TERRITORY OF HAWAII TO REGISTER AND CONFIRM ITS TITLE TO CERTAIN LAND SITUATE IN LAHAINA, ISLAND OF MAUI, TERRITORY OF HAWAII, AND KNOWN AS PA PELEKANE" (1912), HAWAII REPORTS Vol 21, Supreme Court of Hawaii, RH 345.4 H32 v.21 pg. 177 
"That the Territory, as successor to the Kingdom of Hawaii, has obtained title to this lot by prescription."

There was no treaty of Annexation, the Kamehameha III - Kauikeaouli's heirs and successors exists and are parties to the 1850 Treaty of the Hawaiian Kingdom and the United States of America....,. ;) Many nations are watching us because we're from a neutral, friendly, non-violent nation and we're surrounded by Pirates/Pillagers etc....wicked lot.... aloha.........the best to Kanaka Maoli, Konohiki, Assistant Konohiki, and Friends

More discussions were posted on Facebook and Maoliworld.ning.com at http://maoliworld.ning.com/forum/topics/evidence-of-identity-theft-by-the-territory-of-hawaii-turned     theiolani.blogspot.com with 541 issues are also posted for all to read, discuss, empower themselves with information because the truth is that the Royal Families exists maintaining a neutral, non violent nation and criminal racketeering, piracy, pillaging, etc. is being exposed for all to see and the U.S. needs to have an American Consulate here rather than supporting claims by a treasonous based entity calling themselves the "successors" of the Hawaiian Kingdom/Kingdom of Hawaii, etc.

aloha.
