  • Popular sovereignty refers to the idea that the power of the government comes from the people who inhabit a place. This means that the government has the responsibility of acting according to the wishes of the people who elected it. Moreover, it generally also implies that a government that does not follow the wishes of the people is an inefficient or unjust one that should be replaced.
  • Limited government refers to the idea that the power of the government is limited. This means that the government is not able to act in anyway it wants. Instead, it should only act within the boundaries that the people, or the Constitution, have established. This is also intended to prevent the abuse of power by the government.

What was the meaning of Queen Liliuokalani's statement? A) She did not want the Japanese to control the Hawaiian nation so she s
svetlana [45]

The meaning of Queen Liliuokalani's statement was "She was upset that she was unable to overthrow the government and reestablish the monarchy, but abdicated the throne for release and pardon of her compatriots".

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

The first woman ever to rule Hawaii in early 1891 was Liliuokalani. While the then John Stevens, U.S. Minister and a contingent of U.S. Marines were very supportive to a group of European and American entrepreneurs, during January 1893, who staged a takeover to bring down the queen.

The queen had some expectations of appealing to President Cleveland in order to restore her. But as soon as the coup ran by Sanford Dole ignored her restoration, the interim government emergence took place. The government demonstrated the Hawaii Republic in July 1894 and decorated Dole with the title of their first president.

After a failed revolution which was aimed at keeping Liliuokalani to the throne and led by loyalist Robert Wilcox in early 1895, the queen was shifted under house arrest and disloyalty was charged. Later the "Queen Liliuokalani’s Statement" was the one, when she accepted to sign a formal resignation in the late January by swapping for the pardon of the defenders who had run the revolt.

One thing that happened was that the Ottomans decided on slaughtering most of the current aristocracy that was in place before they came - which was logical for them as they didn't want the previous monarchs to interfere with their rule. On the other hand they treated farmers better and they had more rights than before. They could also marry between religions if they wanted to. They also had the same cultural rights as before.
