Polynesian confederation

The Polynesian Confederation was a hypothetical confederation planned mainly by the king of Hawaiʻi Kalākaua. The aim was to protect the Polynesian peoples from European and American imperialism since when the United Kingdom took over Fiji, there were only three independent archipelagos: Hawaiʻi, Sāmoa and Tonga.
