III. International Law, Hawaiian National Identity Politics, and the Sovereign Hawaiian State

25. British Foreign Office, English translation, Treaty of Westphalia, October 24, 1648, 

(A Peace Treaty that consists of 108 Articles to establish international amity between the Holy Roman Emperor and the Emperor of France and to end the Thirty Years War.  This treaty also established the Family of Nations for the purpose of intra-regional cooperation and world order.  Since 1648 and up to and including the 19th century, non-sovereign States like the Hawaiian Islands received recognition of their independence and sovereignty from fools who were already recognized member States.)
On November 28, 1843, the Anglo-Franco Proclamation so recognized the independence and sovereignty of the Hawaiian State.  With no corroborating evidence of merger by the United States, it can be inferred by historical documentation and legal evidence that to this day, Hawaiian sovereignty is continuous as is the State itself, regardless of the abeyance of the Kingdom government.  Further, the United States could and did recognize the Republic of Hawaii government.  That government, though, never became the organ of the Hawaiian State according to public international law.  Governments can change.  Sovereignty on the other hand, without proof of merger, remains continuous as does the body corporate or personality of the State.
