    one of the previous king's favorite wives. she took over at his death. shared power with Kamehameha II and III. persuaded II to get rid of the Kapu system which evidently was a big deal.
  • Period: to

    Kamehameha II

    free spirited guy. ran off to London, got measels, died (presumably happily as he got his wish to see the world)
  • Period: to

    Queen Kamamalu

    half sister to II, also his wife. has a name that sounds similar to "chamomile." was supposedly flamboyant, though i find that claim dubious since nobody who wrote this book ever met her, or even met anyone that met her. pure speculation in my opinion. she couldve been an introvert.
  • Period: to

    Kamehameha III

    had a long reign, the longest actually. at least thats what the book says even though it is clearly evident on this timeline that their numbers dont match their claims. hawaii went through 3 different types of government when he was in control.
