Emva kokunqoba kwakhe u-Oahu kwi-Battle of Nu'uanu, uKamehameha Omkhulu wahlala e-Oahu, ekulungele ukufumana i-Kauai ne-Ni'ihau. Nangona kunjalo, imozulu engafanelekanga entwasahlobo ka-1796 yayikhusela ukuhlasela kwayo kwaye ukuvukela kwiSiqithi esikhulu saseHawaii kwagunyaza ukuba abuyele kwisiqithi sasekhaya.
Ebona ingozi yokushiya iinduna ze-Oahu emva, wacetyiswa ukuba athathe nabo ekubuyeni kwakhe kwiSiqithi saseHawaii, kwaye ashiye abantu abathandayo ukuba bawongamele isi siqithi.
Ukuvukela eHawaii kwaholwa nguNamakeha, umzalwana kaKaiana, intloko yeKauai. Ubomi bokugqibela bokuphila kukaKamehameha kwenzeka kufuphi neHilo, kwisiqithi saseHawaii ngoJanuwari 1797 apho uNamakeha wathathwa khona waza wanyuka.
Kwiminyaka emithandathu ezayo, uKamehameha wahlala kwisiqithi saseHawaii. Le minyaka yayiyiminyaka yoxolo, kodwa uKamehameha waqhubeka nokucwangcisa ukuhlasela kwakhe eKauai, ekwakheni iinqanawa ezazinokumelana nemilambo embi yecala phakathi kuka-Oahu neKauai. Ngoxa uncedwa ngabacebisi bakhe belizwe langaphandle abathembekileyo, uKamehameha wakwazi ukwakha iinqwelo zamanqwanqwa zamanqwanqwa kunye neengalo zanamhlanje, kuquka iidonon.
Ngowe-1802, iinqwelo zashiya isiqithi saseHawaii kwaye emva kokumisa unyaka eMaui, yaqhubeka no-Oahu ngo-1803, ilungiselela ukuhlasela kwe-Kauai. Isifo esibi, ubunjani obuchanekanga obungasungulwanga, kodwa ininzi ikholera okanye umkhuhlane we-typhoid, wamxabela u-Oahu, obangela ukufa kweentloko ezininzi kunye namasosha.
U-Kamehameha naye wabethwa ngesifo kodwa wasinda. Nangona kunjalo, ukuhlasela kweKauai kwakhona kwahlehliswa.
Kwiminyaka eyisibhozo ezayo yokubusa kwakhe, uKamehameha waqhubeka nezicwangciso zakhe zokunqoba iKauai, ukuthenga iimpahla ezininzi zamanye amazwe. Noko ke, iKauai, yayingeke iyanqotshwa. Isiqithi sasiziswe eMbusweni, ngesivumelwano esithethathethwano senziwa ngumhlangano ojongene nobuso phakathi komlawuli olawulayo waseKauai, Kaumualii, noKamehameha ngo-Oahu ngo-1810.
Ekugqibeleni, iHawaii yayibukumkani obumbeneyo, phantsi kolawulo lukaKamehameha I.
Iminyaka Yokuqala Yomthetho
Kwiminyaka yokuqala yokulawula kwakhe, uKamehameha wazijikeleza kunye neqela labacebisi abaphethe iintloko ezintlanu ezazidlala indima ebalulekileyo ekunqobeni iHawaii. Baye baxoxwa kwiinkalo ezininzi zorhulumente. Nangona kunjalo, njengoko bafa oonyana babo abazange bazuze ifa labo. U-Kamehameha waba ngumbuso omkhulu.
U-Kamehameha wayeziqhayisa ngobuhlobo bakhe obuqinileyo eBritish. Impembelelo enamandla kwenkqubo yaseburhulumenteni yaseburhulumenteni ibonakala kuninzi karhulumente asekwe nguKamehameha. Wamisela intloko encinane, egama linguKalanimoku, ukuba abe ngumlawuli wayo.
UKalimimoku wafumana igama likaWilliam Pitt, uNdunankulu waseNgilandi, kwaye ngokwenene, wakhonza iKamehameha njengoNdunankulu, uMgcinima-mali, kunye nomcebisi oyintloko. Ukongezelela, uKamehameha wamisela igosa ukuba abe ngabameli bakhe kwisiqithi ngasinye, kuba wayengenako ukuhlala khona ngamaxesha onke. Okukuphela kwenguKauai, eyayivunyelwe ukuhlala ubukumkani obuninzi obona uKamehameha njengongukumkani.
Laba babarhulumente baqeshwe ngokusekelwe kukunyaniseka nangokwazi kunokuba naluphi na isikhundla njengesintloko. Ukongeza, abaqokeleli berhafu baqeshwe ukuba bakhulise inani elikhulu lemali engenayo efunekayo ukuxhasa inkosi nenkundla yakhe.
Ukukhangela kwiNqabana yaseHawaii, eyiyo namhlanje i-Flag of Hawaii, ibonisa ubudlelwane obukhethekileyo phakathi kweBrithani enkulu neHawaii.
Kubantu, oku kwakungeyona inkqubo entsha ka rhu lumente. Bade behlala ebudeni beentlanga, apho umhlaba wawungowokulawula iinkosi kunye nalapho iprogram ye-kapu iqhutywe ngayo phantse yonke into yobomi baseHawaii. U-Kamehameha wasebenzisa inkqubo ye-kapu ukuqinisa ubungqina bakhe.
U-Kamehameha wabumbene eziqithi waza wazimisela njengomlawuli ophakamileyo. Ngokugcina ezinye iintloko zivalele kuye ngamaxesha onke, kwaye ukuphindaphinda amazwe abo kwiziqithi eziliqela, waqinisekisa ukuba akukho zivukelo eziza kwenzeka.
U-Kamehameha wahlala ethembekile koothixo bakhe. Ngoxa wayephulaphule amabali kaThixo wobuKristu kubantu bezinye iintlanga abaye bavakashela inkundla, bekunye oothixo belifa lakhe ekugqibeleni wazukisa.
Iminyaka yoxolo
U-Kamehameha wahlala e-Oahu de ihlobo le-1812, xa ebuyela kwisithili saseKona seSiqithi esikhulu saseHawaii. Yayiyiminyaka yoxolo. U-Kamehameha wasebenzisa ixesha lokuloba, ukuvuselela i-heiaus (itempile) kunye nokusebenza ekwandiseni imveliso yezolimo.
Ngelo minyaka, urhwebo lwangaphandle lwaqhubeka lukhula. Urhwebo kwakuyi-Royal royal monopoly kwaye uKamehameha wayenandipha inxaxheba. Wayevuyela ukusebenzisana nabaphathi beenqanawa eziphethe i-cargos kunye nezohwebo.
Njengoko kubhalwe nguRichard Wisniewksi kwincwadi yakhe ethi The Rise and Fall of the Kingdom of Hawaii:
"Ukuhlanganiswa kweziqithi zaseHawaii ngo-Kamehameha ebukumkanini obunye buyingxenye enkulu yeempumelelo kwiimbali zaseHawaii." Izinto ezintathu ezibalulekileyo zanikezela kule mpu melelo: 1) abantu bezinye iintlanga abanezixhobo zabo, iingcebiso kunye nomncedisi womzimba; ukungabikho kwezizwe ezahlukileyo ezinokunyaniseka kweentlanga ezinkulu kwaye mhlawumbi ithonya elibalulekileyo; 3) ubuntu bukaKamehameha.
"Ophakamileyo ozalelwe waza waqeqeshwa ukuba aqhube phambili, uKamehameha wayenezo zonke iimpawu zenkokheli ethembekileyo. Unamandla kwi-physics, agile, engesabi kwaye eneengqondo ezinamandla, ukunyaniseka ngokunyanisekileyo kubalandeli bakhe. Wasebenzisa izinto ezintsha kunye nemibono emitsha ukuphakamisa iimfuno zakhe. + Wayexabisa izibonelelo ezinikezwa ngabangaphandle kwaye wabasebenzisa enkonzweni yakhe kodwa akazange awele emandleni abo. kunye namandla angaphakathi, wabamba ubukumkani kunye kunye neentsuku zokugqibela zobomi bakhe. "
Ngo-Ephreli ngo-1819, iSpanish Don de Francisco de Paula y Marin wabizwa kwiSiqithi esikhulu saseHawaii.
UMarin wayehamba emhlabeni, esuka eSpeyin waya eMexico, waya eCalifornia kwaye ekugqibeleni waya eHawaii, apho ekuthiwa utyalwe iipinapula zokuqala eziqithi.
Eyazi kakuhle ngeSpanish, isiFrentshi kunye nesiNgesi, uMarin wakhonza iKamehameha njengomtoliki kunye nomphathi wezorhwebo. UMarin wayenolwazi olusisiseko lwezokwelapha
Amachiza anamhlanje namagunya enkolo kunye nezobugqirha bama-kahunas akwazi ukuphucula imeko kaKamehameha, owayegula.
NgoMeyi 8, 1819, iNkosi uKamehameha I yesizwe esiManyeneyo saseHawaii yafa.
Kwakhona, njengoko kubhalwe nguRichard Wisniewksi kwincwadi yakhe, Ukunyuka nokuwa kobukumkani baseHawaii:
"Njengoko ilizwi lokufa kwenkosi lafika kubantu, kwaba buhlungu obukhulu kubo." Njengobungqina bentlungu, abo bahlala bebudlelane kunye nookumkani bathuthuzela intlungu yabo ngokuzibamba, njengokubamba enye okanye ngaphezulu kwamazinyo.
Kodwa ezinye zeempawu ezigqithiseleyo zosizi ezifana nokuzibulala, zancipha kancane kancane ngenxa yempembelelo yenkcubeko yesizwe. Ngaphandle kwemibingelelo yabantu, leyo uKamehameha wayenqatshelwe ebhedini lakhe lokufa, amasiko amadala ayekhokelwa ngenxa yookumkani. Ngexesha elifanelekileyo, amathambo ayefihliwe ngokucophelela kwaye indawo yawo ayizange ivezwe. "
Namhlanje ungabuka izifanekiso ezine zeKamehameha the Great - e-Honolulu e-Oahu, eHilo naseKapaau kwiSiqithi saseHawaii naseWashington DC kwiHolo lase-Emancipation kwi-US Capitol Visitor Centre.
