The history of New Zealand
The name for New Zealand in Maori is Aotearoa which translates into the land of the long white cloud. The maori came to New Zealand in their waka and they brought with them Kumara, fruit, spears and other weapons. After the maori had settled in New Zealand the Europeans came in their ships and brought with them pigs, meats and other sorts of Animals. After the Europeans came the maori wanted war with the Europeans. They made church the European way and the maori had to join the Christian way. The maori started to trade food for weapon's. There was another story between the maori. Way before the Europeans came James Cook and his Men came. After James Cook came the maori just killed him. sadly they died but other people came and made a treaty that means no war and no trade. So the maori signed the treaty and some even signed with their moko.
