In Hawaii, opposition to annexation primarily came from Native Hawaiians, including Queen Liliʻuokalani and other leaders who sought to preserve Hawaiian sovereignty and culture. Many Native Hawaiians viewed annexation as a violation of their rights and an infringement on their self-governance. Additionally, some members of the local business community and foreign nationals opposed the move, fearing it would disrupt their interests and the existing political landscape. The resistance culminated in petitions and protests against the annexation, reflecting a strong sentiment for independence among various groups.
