From the date of the proclamation, the only way to acquire Hawaiian citizenship is being born in the Hawaiian Islands or abroad\u2014<em><strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.merriam-webster.com\/dictionary\/jus%20sanguinis\" target=\"_blank\">jus sanguinis<\/a><\/strong><\/em> where at least one of the parents is a Hawaiian subject, or through <strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.merriam-webster.com\/dictionary\/naturalization\" target=\"_blank\">naturalization<\/a><\/strong> by application to the Minister of the Interior. Citizenship by naturalization will not be considered until the United States occupation has come to an end. International law prohibits the acquisition of citizenship of the occupied State by birthright during the occupation because the law of occupation protects the <em>status quo ante<\/em> of the occupied State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The proclamation\u2019s intent is to protect the <em>status quo ante<\/em> of the population as it existed prior to the United States invasion on January 16, 1893, and its subsequent occupation that occurred the following day that is now at 130 years. According to the <strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/hawaiiankingdom.org\/info-census1890.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">1890 Government census<\/a><\/strong>, American citizens residing in the Hawaiian Kingdom numbered a mere 1,928, which was less than 2% of the entire population at the time, but exploded to 918,639 in 2009. Other populations of foreigners were also allowed by the United States to unlawfully migrate to the Hawaiian Islands that contributed to the radical disruption of the <em>status quo ante<\/em> of the population in 1893. The law of occupation is supposed to maintain and protect the <em>status quo ante<\/em> of the Hawaiian Kingdom, its institutions, population, and its economy but the United States did not adhere to the law of occupation for 130 years, which led to the commission of war crimes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are currently over thirty countries that have <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Jus_soli\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>restricted citizenship by birthright\u2014jus soli<\/strong><\/a>.
