A video I made with the photographs and pictures of prominent members and consorts of the Kamehameha and Kalakaua dynasties (up until 1921), as well as a their residences, transportation and other events associated with the monarchy.

  • I can't stop crying!!!

  • so beautiful I couldn't stop crying what a beautiful video I recognized the music from Schindlers List...Great Choice of Music....Mahalo so much for this it is so beautiful...Mahalo Nui

  • Theylooked similar to the Merina Dynasty in Madagascar. Sadly both hawaaian and merina were overthrown by greedy racist whites!

  • Beautiful...thank you for sharing...

  • This really, and most truly touchest my hart :,( on how Hawaii became a very strong monarchy in the pacific. The United States should know it is still not nice to take over other peoples land. Im happy to be american but i think its still not nice what the Americans did to the Hawaiians :(

  • Such a moving tribute to the brave and beautiful Hawaiian royal family. I recognized the music immediately, I have seldom experienced a more perfect blending of pictures and melody. The thought of the sadness and tragedy that these special people faced is beyond words. More Americans should educate themselves about the history of Hawaii, the facts are readily available for those who value truth and honor.

  • wow great pictures!! mahao nui loa:)

  • This is so sad. The most melancholy part are the pics of the queen in your final days. She looks sad. I suppose we would feel sad if someone kicked us out of your own home and land.

  • This is so sad.

  • beautiful video. where can i find the music?
