Kamehameha the Great. King Kamehameha was one of the most striking figures in Hawaiian history, a leader who united and ruled the islands during a time of great cultural change.
The Kingdom of Hawai'i is established. In the late 1700s, the Hawaiian chiefs engaged in a conflict for power and control over the lands and the people. Finally, in 1810, the battles ended after King Kamehameha the Great established his dynasty under the House of Kamehameha. As Christian settlers and missionaries came to Hawaii, many of the people were converted, including Kamehameha III, who was the first Christian king of Hawaii. The House of Kamehameha ended with the death of King Kamehameha V, who had no heir.
