The topic of the entry of Crimea into the Russian Federation is still “hot” and on it with perseverance worthy of better use, the West, and especially the SASSh, build all kinds of “sanctions” in relation to Russia.

Recall that in mid -March, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation S. Lavrov said that Crimea for Russia means immeasurably more than the Falkland Islands for the UK or the Comor islands - for France .

The West, led by the SASSh, the entry of Crimea into Russia calls the annexation , which means forcibly joining the state of everything or part of the territory of another state unilaterally , which, of course, is not true.

According to the official results, in the Arc = 96.77 % of the voted supported the accession of Crimea to Russia with a turnout = 83.1 % , in Sevastopol voted for joining Russia = 95.6 % of voters with a turnout = 89.5 % .

However, it was in the history of SASSH that the episode of the full anxia of the territory independent of them - the whole state!

That is how, and not otherwise, one can call the joining of the Hawaiian islands to the SASSH.

By the way, after the large -scale stripping of North America's indigenous population by Europeans and the weaning of their lands, the episode with the Hawaiian islands against the general background is not noticeable and may seem "children's pranks".

Below are a publication from the Internet on this subject. And the conclusions? ..

Make the conclusions yourself.

or how the United States its "Crimea" was attached

Abroad, a degree of anger is not reduced regarding the unanimous decision of the Crimea people on joining Russia. Western politicians have arranged a kind of competition - who will be more painful in Moscow, inventing the most sensitive punishment for it.
So far, the United States is confident in this unofficial tournament. They came up with the main “excuse” why the situation in the Crimea cannot be linked to the “Kosovo precedent”: they say that the Albanians had many sacrifices, so their case is unique and unique. In addition, Kosovo proclaimed independence, and did not become part of another state.
Okay, we will believe the Americans, since they really want. There were different situations in the Crimea and Kosovo: one fully met the interests of the United States, and the other contradicted them. What can be the connection? Meanwhile, for Crimea you can find other analogies, in addition to Kosovo.
For example, in the history of the United States itself there is an episode when the state is absorbed and recognized by the world community by the Americans without any consent of its people and compliance with any procedures. We are talking about the Hawaiian Islands.

This is now Hawaii - the US state, known as the birthplace of President Obama, Hawaiian pizza, colorful shirts and ukolel (local variety of guitar). But back in the 19th century, there was an independent kingdom on the archipelago that maintained diplomatic relations with Japan, Germany, Russia, Sweden and other countries. Unlike other Pacific and African quasimonarchies of that time, it was considered very advanced - it had its own currency, a small but well -equipped army, a military and trade fleet. While the White House in Washington and Buckingham Palace in London was still illuminated by candles, electric lights were already burning in the royal palace of Ilani in Gonolulu and the phone worked.

Under the monarch, the parliament functioned, there was freedom of religion, citizens were considered free and equal, regardless of nationality. The “Declaration of the Rights of People and Leaders”, approved by King Kameamea III, began with the words: “God created all the peoples into one -handed”. The Constitution in Hawaii was adopted in 1840, much earlier than in many European countries. It is unknown, however, how the Hawaiian authorities reacted to sexual rights. Maybe there everything was in order there, although history did not retain mentions of gay parades in gonolulu. However, the problems of the kingdom were not related to this.
Since the famous Captain Cook, who allegedly ended his life path in the stomachs of the natives of one of the islands of the archipelago, the British and the French tried to establish control of Hawaii. However, the local authorities for the time being managed to maintain independence, pushing the foreheads of European colonial monsters.

Everything has changed when the islands came to the view of the Americans ...

The Yankees quickly realized what tremendous income can bring sugar from a local reed. Another profitable business was the breeding of pineapples. It was on Hawaii that the famous Dole empire originated, thanks to which the United States still retains world leadership to grow this fruit or berries. Soon, almost all of the land on the islands suitable for sugar and pineapple plantations was bought up by Americans. This led to a sharp increase in the welfare of immigrants from the United States, which took place against the background of impoverishment of the local population.
However, in the mass of equal citizens of the Kingdom, the Yankees made up a barely noticeable percentage, so they were not insured against political risks. Such a threat arose when the quite democratically chosen King Kalakaua tried to limit the sugar and pineapple magnates, putting forward the slogan of Hawaii for the Hawaiians.

In order to protect the interests of their business, the United States invited the local authorities to transfer to them “temporary lease” Bay Pearl Harbor (even if, they say, our boats will stand there), as well as adjust the electoral legislation. When the king was stubborn, armed militants from the “Hawaiian League” created by the Americans appeared to him in the palace, which forced him under the muzzles of rifles to sign the new basic law of the country (“Nebandera” in Ukraine had someone to take an example from).

The adopted “Bayonet Constitution” introduced an increased property qualification for voters, actually depriving the natives of the voting right. Further was a matter of technology.
After the death of King Kalakau, his sister, Princess Liliuokalani, who tried to play the situation back, canceled the discriminatory norms of the constitution. As soon as she addressed such a proposal to the government, the Boston Navy cruiser was drawn on the raid by Gonolulu. The marine infantrymen and the guys from the Hawaiian League landed from him quickly quickly took control of all the key objects of the capital, announcing the deposition of the queen. As a result of the coup, the Hawaiian Republic was formed, which was headed by a representative of the Pineapple Magnata family Sanford Douul. The attempts of the Hawaiians were suppressed.

As soon as he came to power, the new government made an offer to include the archipelago in the United States. Having broken for a look, Washington agreed, annexing the islands. So, in 1898, Hawaii ceased to be an independent state. Moreover, without any referenda ...

We must pay tribute to the natives - they did not reconcile.

Being brought up in the traditions of Hawaiian democracy, they filled up American courts with complaints, demanding to recognize the annexation of illegal. And a miracle happened. In less than a hundred years, in 1993, the US Congress adopted a resolution with an apology to the residents of Hawaii "for violating their rights to self -determination." But the joy of supporters of justice was premature. The paragraph was inscribed in the same resolution that this document "cannot serve as the basis for making any claims to the United States." In a word, yes, we got excited; But what was, it was, but the incident has not been subject to the exchange and return ...

So in disputes around Crimea it makes no sense to remember Kosovo, since the “international community” and Americans does not want this.

... you can talk about Hawaii.
