One of the corner stones of modern Hawaiian law is the remarkable revelation of human rights by an ambitious King with conquest on his mind. In observance of King Kamehameha Day, we celebrate the remarkable legal legacy of our Mo’i Nui.Kamehameha, during his conquest to unify the islands, had initiated a military expedition in Puna, an area on the big island, that resisted his early military ambitions.
