" Kamehameha V (1830–1872), born as
 Lot Kapuāiwa, 
reigned as monarch of the Kingdom of Hawaiʻi 
 from 1863 to 1872.
 His motto was "Onipa`a": immovable, firm, steadfast

was 
described as the last great traditional chief.  
His full Hawaiian name prior to his succession was
 Lota Liholiho Kapuāiwa Kalanimakua Kalanikupuapaikalaninui Aliʻiolani Kalani-a-Kekūanaōʻa. "
