It was wrong. It was a coup d’etat by an upper class clique.

However, the kingdom was moribund. It would have fallen regardless, one way or another. I don’t see how it could have been saved.

The same thing happened to the Boer nations btw, in 1899, for the same reasons.

That should have been up to The Hawaiians, not us.
