After watching the documentary “Act of war” I grew more interest about the Hawaiian culture and their history. It is so much more about this beautiful paradise and I am sure that many of us , only know about the famous beaches, fun activities and the price of a Hula dance class in the middle of nature. But that’s just like judging and assuming by the cover of a book.
So, the very interesting, yet sad documentary about Hawaii reveald that until 1893, the Hawaiian Kingdom was a monarchy, ruled by Queen Liliuokalani, but eventually the islands became the 50th state of the United States, after the Americans took over and turned the Hawaiian nation and lands into their territory.
In a cruel takeover and political battle, the Americans dethroned Queen Liliuokalani and the islands became the Americans battle ground, in a very cruel and unjust way, destroying the beautiful, unique way of living and their rich culture.
