Kaimana, would you describe Kamehameha's conquest as somehow more legitimate than the coup? The only difference I see is a lot more people died.
As to "illegal" coups or annexations, beyond treaties there really is no binding international law, just sovereign nations doing as they please. And even treaties are broken all the time.
