What planter with the aid of the US Marines removed Queen Liliuokalani?

Queen Liliuokalani was removed from power in Hawaii in 1893 with the assistance of a group of American planters, primarily led by Sanford B. Dole. This group sought to overthrow her monarchy and establish a republic that favored American interests. The U.S. Marines were called in to support the coup, effectively aiding the planters in their efforts to depose the queen. The overthrow ultimately led to the annexation of Hawaii by the United States in 1898.


What were the effects of the annexation of Hawaii?

American imperialism had a very profound effect on Hawaii. Once Hawaii had become a protectorate, American business men started arriving. As time passed, they made efforts to disenfranchise the Hawaiian people. For example, limiting voting rights to only wealthy people. This caused the Hawaiian legislature to be mainly composed of foreign legislators. When the Hawaiian queen ascended the throne and attempted to bring more equality to the island, an American, Sanford B. Dole (as in Dole bananas), seized power, and had her arrested and imprisoned. Dole and the other businessmen were instrumental in turning Hawaii into a Republic, which had Dole, rather than a native Hawaiian, as its first president.

Who created established a Committee of Safety?

The Committee of Safety was established by various groups during the American Revolution, but it is most notably associated with the Hawaiian Islands' overthrow of Queen Liliʻuokalani in 1893. The group was composed of American and European business interests in Hawaii, led by individuals such as Sanford B. Dole, who sought to secure their economic interests and ultimately facilitated the annexation of Hawaii by the United States. The term has also been used in other contexts, such as during the early stages of the American Revolution when local committees were formed to maintain order and safety in the absence of effective governance.
