HOW MANY IN HAWAI`I FAVORED THE ILLEGAL TAKEOVER?

Of the 40,000 non Kingdom subjects in Hawai`i at the time of the illegal 1898 overthrow, only 1,928 or so were US nationals as documented by the 1900 census.

They represented less than 3% of the entire population.


The rest of the non US aliens were not supportive of the illegal annexation of Hawai`i by the US.


The resulting illegal "Republic of Hawai`i" had less than 2,000 citizens.


This means that less than 3% of the population, US aliens, hijacked the Hawaiian Nation against the wishes of almost everybody else.
