After gaining independence from the United States in 1843, Hawaii was known as the Kingdom of Hawaii.
When did it gain Independence
Hawaii gained independence on November 28, 1843, when it was officially recognized as an independent sovereign country by the United Kingdom and France through a declaration known as the Anglo-Franco Proclamation.
What ways did it achieve independence: arm-resustance, negotiations, external pressure or colonial power wish to leave
Hawaii achieved independence through negotiations and diplomacy rather than armed resistance. The independence of Hawaii was recognized through the efforts of King Kamehameha III and the Hawaiian government, who actively sought international recognition as a sovereign nation. The Anglo-Franco Proclamation of 1843, in which the United Kingdom and France formally recognized Hawaii as an independent state, played a significant role in solidifying Hawaii's independence from colonial powers. There was external pressure from other countries to recognize Hawaii as an independent nation, and the Hawaiian government worked strategically to maintain its independence and avoid colonization.
