All land in Hawai`i was initially stolen in 1893 by a group of foreigners who subsequently formed the Provisional Government.
Failing at its first attempt in 1894 to be annexed by the US Government, the provisional government reincorporated themselves into the phony Republic of Hawai`i.
The Republic of Hawai`i totaled less than 4000 citizens, mostly white foreigners, compared to the 45,000 Hawaiian Kingdom Nationals living throughout Hawai`i at that time.
It was the Republic of Hawai`i that later exchanged stolen Hawaiian Kingdom lands (property now known in part as the so-called “ceded lands”) with the US.
