Kaʻiulani

Victoria Kawēkiu Kaʻiulani Lunalilo Kalaninuiahilapalapa Cleghorn (1875–1899) was heir to the throne of the Kingdom of Hawaii and held the title of Crown Princess. Kaiulani became known throughout the world for her intelligence, beauty and determination. After the overthrow of the Hawaiian monarchy in 1893, she visited the United States to help restore the Kingdom. Although reluctant to participate in politics, she made many speeches and public appearances denouncing the overthrow of her government and the injustice toward her people. In Washington, D.C, she paid an informal visit to U.S. President Grover Cleveland and his wife Frances Folsom Cleveland Preston, but her efforts could not prevent eventual annexation.
==Heiress to the throne==

Victoria Kaiulani was born October 16, 1875 at Keōua Hale in Honolulu.〔(Royal Ark )〕 Through her mother, Kaiulani was descended from High Chief Kepoʻokalani, the first cousin of Kamehameha the Great on the side of Kamehameha's mother, Kekuʻiapoiwa II. Her mother was also a sister of King Kalākaua and Queen Liliʻuokalani. Kaiulani's father was Archibald Scott Cleghorn, a Scottish financier from Edinburgh and the last Royal Governor of Oahu.
She was baptized Christmas Day, 1875 at St. Andrew's Anglican Cathedral. Princess Ruth Keʻelikōlani stood as her godmother.
Kaʻiulani was named after her aunt Anna Kaʻiulani who died young, and Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom, whose help restored the sovereignty and independence of the Kingdom of Hawaii during the reign of Kamehameha III. The name comes from ''ka iu lani'' which means "the highest point of heaven" or "the royal sacred one" in the Hawaiian language. Upon her birth, Kaiulani was gifted the estate of ʻĀinahau in Waikiki by her godmother. Kaiulani inherited ʻĀinahau at the age of 11 upon the death of her mother.
In 1881, King Kalākaua tried to arrange a marriage between Kaiulani and Japan's Prince Higashifushimi Yorihito in hopes of creating an alliance between Japan and the Kingdom of Hawaii. However, the prince declined, as he was already pre-arranged to marry a Japanese noble lady, Arima Yoriko. In 1894, Queen Liliʻuokalani wrote to her niece to marry one of the three: Prince David Kawānanakoa, Prince Jonah Kūhiō Kalanianaʻole, or Prince Komatsu Akihito (then studying in London), the half-brother of Higashifushimi Yorihito. She replied to her aunt that she would prefer to marry for love unless it was necessary to protect the independence of the Hawaiian Kingdom.
On February 3, 1898, she declared her engagement to Prince David Kawānanakoa, but her early death ended the hope of marriage.
