Royal Order of the Star of Oceania
In 1886, King Kalakaua established the Royal Order of the Star of Oceania to help build alliances with notable people throughout the Pacific and advancing his plan to establish a conference of islands across the Pacific. It was held in abeyance after the illegal overthrow of Queen Lili’uokalani in 1893. The order is now reestablished by the senior heir to the Royal House of Hawaii,
H.R.H. Princess Owana Kaʻōhelelani.
The Royal Order of the Star of Oceania or Ka Hoku O Osiania is highly awarded to the Head of States, Royal Houses and Dyasties.
Also as awards of merit to loyal supporters of the royal family, the Kamehameha Charitable Foundation and those who provide excellent services in the field of cultural achievement and education in Hawaiʻi and throughout Polynesia.
For nominations, please submit a request to the Chancellor at chancellery@crownofhawaii.com
