Hawaiian Independence Day


Aloha kākou! ʻO wau ʻo Kainalu. me Lehua.This is how  Lā Kūʻokoʻa came to be,  PART 4.   

After 16 months and many travels, the envoys succeeded in their mission.  On November 28, 1843, Great Britain and France signed a joint proclamation recognizing the independence of Hawaiʻi, otherwise known as Lā Kūʻokoʻa.

The Hawaiian Kingdom’s national independence was recognized by 16 world nations between 1843 and 1885.  International treaty relationships were established with such countries as Austria-Hungary, Belgium, France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Russia, Spain, Sweden and Norway, the Swiss Confederation, and the United States of America.

Stay tuned tomorrow for the final day in the history of Lā Kūʻokoʻa.  Alooha!
