I te tau 1845, i whakakotahihia e te toa toa, te kaituku rautaki, me te kaikorero a Tāufaʻāhau a Tonga hei rangatiratanga. I mau ia i te taitara matua o Tuʻi Kanokupolu, engari i iriiria e nga misionare Methodist me te ingoa Siaosi ("George") i te 1831. I te tau 1875, i te awhina o te misionare a Shirley Waldemar Baker, i whakapuakina e ia ko Tonga he rangatiratanga ture; i whakaaetia e ia te momo kingi o te hauauru; i whakaorangia nga "ngakau"; i whakamanahia he waehere ture, te mana whenua, me te herekore o te press; me te whakawhāiti i te mana o nga rangatira.  Pātai: I tehea tau i kī ai a Taufa'ahau, te Tu'i Kanokupolu, ko Tonga he rangatiratanga ture?
