'''Tapoa II''' (c. 1806–1860), also known as '''Teri'inohora'i''', '''Pōmare''', or '''Teari'imaevarua''' was a prominent figure in the political and dynastic history of the [[Leeward Islands (Society Islands)|Leeward Islands]] during the nineteenth century. Through his marriage to Aimata, the future Queen [[Pōmare IV]], he held the title of [[List of royal consorts of Tahiti|Royal consort of Tahiti]] from 1827 until December 1832. He became King of [[Bora Bora]] and [[Maupiti]] in 1840 and ruled until his death in 1860. His reign illustrates the complex interplay of indigenous leadership, missionary influence, and colonial pressures that shaped the political landscape of the [[Society Islands]] during this period.

==Family== Teri'inohora'i was born in 1806.{{sfn|Lesson|1838|page=266}} His mother was Maevarua and his father was Teri'itaria.{{sfn|Pichevin|2013|pages=193, 282}} [[Teuira Henry]] pretended that he was the son of Tapoa I.{{sfn|Henry|Orsmond|1928|page=259}} Nevertheless, other sources clearly identify him as Tapoa I's grandson.{{sfn|Williams|1837|page=374}}{{sfn|Mortimer|1838|pages=436-437}}{{sfn|Salmon|1923|pages=39-40}}{{sfn|Pichevin|2013|page=193}} He became an orphan in 1809. Davies recorded on 19 May 1809: "A canoe arrived from Raeatɛa with news that Maevarua, [[Tapoa I|Tapoa's]] daughter, is very ill. This canoe was dispatched to fetch a man who lives in our neighbourhood named Totara. He is a priest and prophet, and supposed to have great power with the gods. He is to go to [[Ra'iātea|Raeatɛa]] to pray for Tapoa's daughter. He has been there lately on a like errand, and she got better, as was thought, by his prayers."{{sfn|Davies|1810|at=https://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-2712824431. Entry on May 19, 1809}} Subsequently, on 14 July 1809, he noted: "Three canoes arrived from Raeatɛa; they come here to fetch the chiefs who are to go thither to lament the death of Maevarua, Tapoa's daughter and acknowledged chief of Tahaa and Bora Bora."{{sfn|Davies|1810|at=https://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-2712825419. Entry on July 14, 1809}}{{sfn|Thomson|1851|at=https://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-2739259413|page=26 Vol.3}}

As Teri'inohora'i's mother held the rank of ari'i (chieftess) over both Bora Bora and Taha'a, traditional historical accounts and genealogies refer to her as Teari'imavarua or Teri'imaevarua, two variant forms of the same name.{{sfn|Pichevin|2013|pages=193, 282}} She should not be confused with Teri'imaevarua, a daughter of [[Puni (chief)|Puni]], who in 1792 was reigning over [[Bora Bora]], [[Maupiti]], and [[Tupai]], having lost control of [[Ra'iātea]] and [[Taha'a]], according to [[George Vancouver]].{{sfn|Vancouver|1798a|pages=113, 141-142}} She was succeeded in the early 1800s by another Teri'imaevarua, known as Teri'imaevarua I, a great-granddaughter of [[Puni (chief)|Puni]] through her father Teau'e.{{sfn|Pichevin|2013|pages=198-199}} On 7 November 1846, [[Henry Byam Martin]], in command of {{HMS|Grampus|1845|6}}, reported that Tapoa II had succeeded to the sovereignty of [[Bora Bora]] partly by right of his mother and partly by the voice of the people.{{sfn|Martin|1981|page=72}}

==Pōmare II's visit to the Leeward Islands== On 3 September 1814, [[Pōmare II]] made an unplanned visit to the [[Leeward Islands (Society Islands)|Leeward Islands]] after adverse winds redirected the brig ''Mathilda'', an Indian vessel commanded by Captain Fowler. He was accompanied by [[Charles Wilson (missionary)|Charles Wilson]]; George Bicknell, nephew of [[Henry Bicknell (missionary)|Henry Bicknell]]; Samuel Pinder Henry, son of [[William Henry (missionary)|William Henry]]; Ta'aroaari'i, son of [[Mahine Teheiura|Mahine]]; and 23 individuals from the [[Society Islands]]. Compelled to remain in the [[Leeward Islands (Society Islands)|Leeward Islands]] for three months, he visited Taha'a, Ra'iātea, and Huahine, where he was received with the highest honors. According to several testimonies dating from 1845, the chiefs of the Leeward Islands are said to have once again pledged allegiance and "ceded" their lands to [[Pōmare II]], as they had previously done in 1810. During his stay in Taha'a, Pōmare II officially adopted Teri'inohora'i, grandson of [[Tapoa I]], gave him his name Pōmare and betrothed him to his daughter [[Pōmare IV|Aimata]]. [[Fenuapeho]], chief of Taha'a and a member of Tapoa I's family, was appointed regent to Teri'inohorai. Pōmare returned to Mo'orea on December 2, 1814.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-2713979078 |title=Henry Bicknell and al. to Joseph Hardcastle.

==Suzerainty over Taha'a== Between late 1815 and early 1816, a coalition of worshippers of indigenous Tahitian deities allied with [[Fenuapeho]] in opposition to [[Tamatoa III]] and his faction of ''Pure Atua,'' or Christian converts. Although Fenuapeho was ultimately defeated, he retained his title as chief of Taha'a under Tamatoa's suzerainty.Tamatoa left the vanquished chief in possession of his lands, assuming control exclusively over the governance, which he exercised until his death.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-2713997272 | title=Henry Bicknell and al. to the directors of the Missionary Society London.

==Marriage with Aimata== Teri'inohora'i married [[Pōmare IV|Aimata]] the future Queen [[Pōmare IV]] on 18 December 1822 in Huahine.{{sfn|Mortimer|1838|pages=379–382}} The marriage was solemnized in the principal place of worship at Apo'otava. The spectacle was remarkably imposing and novel, both to Europeans and to the islanders. The relatives of the bride and groom, the chiefs from [[Tahiti]] and [[Huahine]], together with [[Fenuapeho]], king of Taha'a, and [[Tamatoa III]], king of Ra'iātea, attended the ceremony.{{sfn|Ellis|1831c|pages=287–288}}{{sfn|Tyerman|Bennet|1832b|pages=136–137}}{{sfn|Mortimer|1838|pages=379–382}}

==Code of laws Tamatoa== On 11 May 1820, under the guidance of English missionaries, the chiefs of the Leeward Islands, united in promulgating a formal legal code entitled ''E Ture, no Ra'iātea, e no Taha'a, e no Porapora, e no Maupiti, e no te fenua ri'i ato'a i pīha'i iho'' ("The Laws for [[Ra'iātea]], [[Taha'a]], [[Bora Bora]], [[Maupiti]], and all the small surrounding lands"). Modeled on the 1819 Tahitian code introduced by [[Pōmare II]], this enactment marked a decisive transition from customary oral traditions to codified legislation within the [[Leeward Islands (Society Islands)|Leeward Islands]].<ref name="Barff-18November1845">{{cite web|url=https://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-2715213863 |title=Charles Barff to George Seymour.

The two contenders were Pōmare or Teri'inohora'i, the grandson of [[Tapoa I]], and the widow of Tapoa the biological son of [[Tapoa I]], who had died a few months earlier. Pōmare received the support of the majority of Taha'a's inhabitants, while the widow of Tapoa I's son was backed by the minority on the island, along with all the chiefs and people of [[Ra'iātea]]. <ref name="Bourne20January1825"/> [[Charles Barff (missionary)|Charles Barff]] attested that in 1820, during the promulgation of the first code of law concerning the islands of Ra'iātea, Taha'a, [[Bora Bora]], and [[Maupiti]], [[Tamatoa III]] had been appointed guardian of Tapoa I's son who died at a young age. He also added that the latter was the uncle of Pōmare confirming Bourne's writings.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-2715213863 |title=Charles Barff to George Seymour.

These disruptions exerted a substantial impact on the local economy.<ref name="Bourne20January1825"/>

==The Leeward Island War== [[Ra'iātea]] and [[Taha'a]] had been united prior to their conversion to [[Christianity]], under the rule of [[Tamatoa III]], King of Ra'iātea. Around April 1831, [[Fenuapeho]], the chief of Taha'a died, and authority passed to the young Teri'inohora'i, who assumed the title of Tapoa II. Offended by the King of Ra'iātea over a dispute concerning land on Ra'iātea that he claimed as his own, Tapoa II resolved to detach the government of Taha'a from Ra'iātea and transfer it to the chiefs of [[Bora Bora]], to which it had been joined in earlier times. King Tamatoa III strongly opposed to the change of government, but fell ill at the end of May during a military expedition intended to restore the exiled people of Taha'a to their lands. He died in the first half of June 1831, in the presence of the missionary [[John Williams (missionary)|John Williams]], his family, and the chiefs of Huahine. He was succeeded by his son Moe'ore, who assumed the title of [[Tamatoa IV]] and continued to resist the ambitions of Tapoa II. Moe'ore received support from [[Mahine Teheiura|Mahine]], [[Temari'i Ma'ihara|Ma'ihara]], Queen [[Teri'itaria II|Teri'itaria]], as well as from the chiefs of Ra'iātea and Huahine, including Teari'ifa'atau and Tera'imano (formerly known as Turaiari'i), the daughter of the late [[Tenania|Tenani'a]]. Tapoa II, by contrast, was supported by the chiefs of Taha'a, several chiefs of Ra'iātea who had betrayed the late Tamatoa III, and by Tefa'aora II, [[Ma'i III]], together with the chiefs of Bora Bora. The conflict quickly escalated into armed clashes, with three battles fought on the island of [[Taha'a]], the last of which resulted in Tapoa II's defeat at Vaitoare on 3 April 1832, where over fifty men were killed. Tapoa II and his partisans were subsequently exiled to [[Huahine]]. The entire plot appeared to have been orchestrated by certain leaders of the heretical sect that had arisen some years earlier among the [[Society Islands]]. Following the meeting of May 1832, a general peace plan was submitted for the approval of Queen [[Pōmare IV]]. The resulting treaty divided the territories: Ra'iātea and Taha'a were entrusted to Tamatoa IV, while Bora Bora and [[Maupiti]], were assigned to Tapoa II. A new code of laws was deemed necessary to govern these islands. Later that year, Queen Pōmare IV distanced herself from her spouse Tapoa II and married her cousin [[Ariifaite a Hiro|Tenani'a]]. Celebrated in [[Mo'orea]] on 3 December 1832, by missionary [[Henry Nott]], the marriage sparked intense political and social controversy in early 1833.<ref>{{cite web| url=https://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-2714338028/view |title=Alexander Simpson to William Alers Hankey.

==Adoption of Pomare IV's daughter== In the absence of biological offspring from his unions with Queen [[Pōmare IV]] and subsequently Tapoa Vahine, King Tapoa undertook a dynastic adoption to secure succession. At infancy, he and his consort adopted the sole daughter of Queen Pōmare IV, bestowing upon her the name Maevarua and formally designating her as the heir to the throne of Bora Bora.{{sfn|Henry|Orsmond|1928|pages=249, 259}}{{sfn|Teissier|1978|page=39}}{{sfn|Martin|1981|page=72}}

==The Franco-Tahitian War== From mid-July 1844 until 1847, [[Tamatoa IV]], Tapoa II, and [[Teri'itaria II]] supported Queen [[Pōmare IV]] during the [[Franco-Tahitian War]]. During this period, Ma‘i III and Tefaa'ora II challenged the authority of Tapoa by recognizing the flag of the French [[protectorate]] and placing themselves under French protection. The conflict ultimately concluded with the adoption of the [[Jarnac Convention]] in 1847, a bilateral agreement between France and Britain that recognized the independence of the Leeward Islands.{{sfn|France Ministère des affaires étrangères|1887|pages=1-2}}
