Something interesting about the Hawaiian paragraph
1. The real historical result is that the Hawaiian People's League led by Thurston, with the tacit consent of the American government, led the Lancers to force the palace, and the queen announced her resignation in order to protect her subjects from being slaughtered by war.
2. The attitude of the President of Cleveland and Congress was about the same, and the Queen went to the United States of America to express her protest. In order to appease the Queen, the president sent a special envoy to Blunt to set up an investigation team to investigate the coup, and after the investigation, the special envoy submitted the "Blunt Report", accusing Ambassador Stevenson of overstepping his authority and supporting the coup d'état in Hawaii.
3. The new ambassador tried to help the queen reinstate, but due to the strong protest of the government of the Republic of Hawaii and domestic opposition, the queen's request to severely punish the coup d'état was refused, and in 1895 he was framed in the palace for hiding weapons and trying to restore the country and was placed under house arrest.
4. The Cleveland government was busy with the expansion of power in South America, the domestic economic crisis, and the fear of British and French involvement, so it put the Hawaiian question on the shelf, and only recognized the provisional government in 1894.
5. The final solution to the problem was that after the election of Republican McKinley to the presidency, the president fanatically supported the annexation of Hawaii and prompted Congress to pass the annexation bill in 1898.
6. The Japanese did not react as much as the Chinese in the 1893 coup d'état, the Japanese government was busy preparing for war in East Asia, but in 1898 the United States annexed Hawaii in the process of reacting very fiercely, and declared that it would not hesitate to fight with the United States, and sent warships to confront the United States in Hawaii, but in the end it still gave up.
7. Genyosha is a famous Japanese ronin group, which is the vanguard of Japan's overseas expansion, and has a very significant role in the XX War.
8. Chen Dewang's prototype is Chen Fang, the first millionaire among overseas Chinese in the United States. This man's experience is quite legendary.
In the twenty-ninth year of Daoguang of the Qing Dynasty (1849), he went to Honolulu with his uncle to study business, initially dealing in Chinese native products and traditional furniture, and then set up his own door, and co-founded "Fangzhi Ji" with Cheng Zhi, engaged in sugarcane planting and sugar industry. In the 60s of the 19th century, during the American Civil War, the southern United States cut off the supply of cane sugar to the north, and it seized this opportunity to dump a large amount of cane sugar into the northern United States and obtain huge profits (the above is excerpted from Baidu Encyclopedia)
He married Princess Julia of Hawaii and became a member of the Privy Council in the upper reaches of Hawaii.
The time point is 1894, at this time Chen Fang has sold his property in 1890 and returned to China.
9, He Kuan, the first person Chen Jianqiu saw when he got off the boat, was indeed a person.
This person was the first vice chairman of the X Central Association, which Mr. X founded in Honolulu in 1894, and was also a close friend of Mr. X, a former journalist.
There are many other tips that I won't repeat here.
In fact, many of the previous chapters have buried a lot of easter eggs, and in the future, they will be written out for everyone one by one in extra or free form.
