HAWAIIAN KINGDOM GOVERNMENT RECOGNIZED BY ITALY

Italy gave recognition to the Hawaiian Kingdom Government which is conducting business each weekday on `Iolani Palace grounds.


A letter addressed to Hawai`i Kingdom Government and stamped “Italian Consulate” reads -


“This office on behalf of the Italian Government in Hawai`i acknowledges that there was a prior treaty that was not between the United States nor the State of Hawai`i but between the Hawaiian Kingdom and the Italian government.


“We acknowledge and recognize that the Hawaiian Kingdom exists and is operating at 210 `Iolani Avenue in Honolulu, Hawai`i 96783.

We appreciate your visits to our office and appreciate the relationship that Italy has with the Hawaiian Kingdom and its currently operating government.”
