About Kamehameha III

  • Kamehameha III (born Kauikeaouli) (March 17, 1814 – December 15, 1854) was the third king of the Kingdom of Hawaii from 1825 to 1854.
  • His full Hawaiian name is Keaweawe?ula Kiwala?o Kauikeaouli Kaleiopapa and then lengthened to Keaweawe?ula Kiwala?o Kauikeaouli Kaleiopapa Kalani Waiakua Kalanikau Iokikilo Kiwala?o i ke kapu Kamehameha when he ascended the throne. Under his reign Hawaii evolved from an absolute monarchy to a constitutional monarchy with the signing of both the 1840 Constitution, which was the first Hawaiian Language Constitution, and the 1852 Constitution.
  • He was the longest reigning monarch in the history of the Kingdom, ruling for 29 years and 192 days, although in the early part of his reign he was under a regency by Queen Ka?ahumanu and later by Ka?ahumanu II.
