| | Liliʻuokalani |
 | | Queen Liliuokalani of Hawaii (September 2, 1838 â“ November 11, 1917), originally named Lydia Kamakaeha, also known as Lydia Kamakaeha Paki, with the chosen royal name of Liliuokalani, and later named Lydia K. Dominis, was the last monarch of the Kingdom of Hawaii. |
 | | The administration of Grover Cleveland commissioned the Blount Report, and based on its findings believed that the overthrow of Liliuokalani was illegal and offered November 16, 1893 to give the throne back to her if she granted amnesty to everyone responsible. |
 | | She was sentenced to five years of hard labor in prison and fined $5000, but the sentence was commuted to imprisonment in an upstairs bedroom of Iolani Palace until she was released in 1896, with the establishment of the Republic of Hawaii. |
