Question

The annexation of Hawaii was peaceful, with no opposition from native Hawaiians
True/False

Answer 1

False. The annexation of Hawaii involved significant opposition from native Hawaiians. Many native Hawaiians opposed the overthrow of the Hawaiian monarchy in 1893 and the subsequent annexation by the United States in 1898. This resistance stemmed from a desire to maintain their sovereign nation and cultural identity. The events surrounding the annexation were controversial and have had lasting effects on the Hawaiian people and their history.
