I agree with you. It is a sad affair for the nation of Hawaii, ending up as a native indian tribe of the United States is the end result of a colonial project that was very very successful. Some nations survive colonialism with a few damage, others survive with mild damage (Ireland [language and a lost province] ) others are in a ongoing struggle for their survival (Catalonia,Tibet) and others become shadows of their formal self, a 'museum piece' like Hawaii and Vasque country
