Pōmare V (3 November 1839 – 12 June 1891)[1] was the last monarch of Tahiti, reigning from 1877 until his forced abdication in 1880. He was the son of Queen Pōmare IV.[2]
He was born as Teri'i Tari'a Te-rā-tane and became Heir Apparent and Crown Prince (Ari'i-aue) upon the death of his elder brother on 13 May 1855.[2] He became king of Tahiti on the death of his mother on 17 September 1877.[1] His coronation was on 24 September 1877 at Pape'ete.
On 29 June 1880, he gave Tahiti and its dependencies to France,[1][4] whereupon he was given a pension by the French government[5] and the titular position of Officer of the Orders of the Legion of Honour and Agricultural Merit of France.
He died at the Royal Palace, Pape'ete, and is buried at the Tomb of the King, Utu'ai'ai in 'Arue.[5]
