In the treaty with Hawaii, specifically the 1887 Bayonet Constitution, the United States gained exclusive rights to establish a naval base at Pearl Harbor. This arrangement significantly strengthened U.S. military presence in the Pacific and facilitated American interests in the region. Additionally, the treaty allowed for increased American influence over Hawaiian politics and economy, ultimately leading to the annexation of Hawaii in 1898.
In the 1884 treaty between the US and Hawaii, the term "sovereignty" raised concerns among Hawaiians as it implied a potential loss of their independence and self-governance. Many Hawaiians feared that the treaty could lead to greater American control over their islands and resources, undermining their political and cultural autonomy. This apprehension was rooted in the historical context of increasing American influence and the eventual annexation of Hawaii in 1898, which further eroded Hawaiian sovereignty. The treaty thus symbolized a pivotal moment in the struggle for Hawaiian identity and rights.
Hawaii was not yet a part of United States and so no it did not sign the treaty of Paris. However, the Philippines, Guam, and Puerto Rico were obtained by the US.
