Liliuokalani, the last monarch of Hawaii, sought to reduce foreign influence primarily through her efforts to restore the monarchy's power and limit the rights of foreign landowners and businesses. Her attempts culminated in the 1893 overthrow by American and European interests, supported by local businessmen. The effects were profound, leading to the annexation of Hawaii by the United States in 1898 and the eventual loss of sovereignty, which significantly altered the cultural and political landscape of the islands. Her actions sparked a legacy of native resistance and discussions about sovereignty that continue to resonate in Hawaiian politics today.
