List of monarchs of Hawaii
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Hawaiian Monarchy is the direct successor to the monarchies of Hawaiʻi, Oʻahu, Maui and Kauaʻi. For those, see List of Ali'i Aimoku of Hawai'i, List of Ali'i Aimoku of O'ahu, List of Ali'i Aimoku of Maui, and List of Ali'i Aimoku of Kaua'i.

The Kingdom of Hawaii was founded by Kamehameha I in 1795 after conquering most of the Hawaiian archipelago. In 1810, Kaumuali'i became a vassal of Kamehameha I, who therefore emerged as the sole sovereign of the island chain of Hawaiʻi. His dynasty lasted until 1872, and Kingdom of Hawaii lasted until 1893, when Queen Liliuokalani was deposed by a pro-United States revolution. In recent years, US President Bill Clinton gave a formal apology for the American role in the revolution.
