New zealand

It was between the years 900 and

1200 that fishermen and hunters of

Eastern Polynesia in canoes arrived

in the land of Aotea roa, which in

Maori means "Land of the Long

White Cloud". Those trips were

planned in every detail, with large

double-hulled canoes, catamaran

type, called Pahi. It came from a

single island, but several different,

and so different tribes. In New

Zealand, Emu hunted a bird 3 times

larger than a ema or ostrich, which

reached almost 4 meters high,

besides spending 200 kilos. The

Emu eggs were prized, and should

give a beautiful giant omelet

powering half tribe and are

probably the reason for the bird to

have been extinct. The bones were

used for making decorative

artifacts, ornaments, and war, and

had very value as an object of

change. The Maoris were

established in various parts of New

Zealand, in the North Island and in

the South, living in tribal system,

with leaders and traditions

.

Later in 1642, the Dutchman Abel Tasman,

sailed to the west of the South Island, he saw

land and thought it was a continent. He named Staten Land. Resolved map,

and discovered that in truth he had discovered an island, and changed the

name Nieuw Zeeland. I was very happy with the discovery and whistling the

national anthem of the Netherlands, ordered the crew ashore to explore the

island, and was about to land when the Maoris also attacked. It was a delicious

battle as cannibalism, and cut the enemy's head was embalming Maori

tradition. Abel got soaked dump escape Kumara (sweet potato), but went

high. He fled with all sails up and never got to play with the cute feet Nieuw

Zeeland. Only after more than 100 years after the banquet, Cook arrived and

as he could not speak the language of Abel, decided to change the name to

New Zealand.

In 1769, the intrepid Captain Cook was able to

disembark without being eaten, and returned

two other times and rolled the North and

South Islands and gave names to places and

Baiae. For too long New Zealand lived very

tumultuados periods. The whaling by

Europeans and Chinese, walked the mile a

minute, and constant conflicts between Maori

and Baleeiros were routine. Rivalries between

different Maori tribes also increased, each

coveting the neighbor with water in your

mouth for dinner. Brought by the Baleeiros

Muskets were exchanged for fresh

mantimentos with the Maoris, and firepower differences

between tribes, did that make war more and more,

reducing the population enough. At the same time,

wanting to appease Christian missionaries interfered

internal and external conflicts, with the French, were quite

interested in the island to stay with them. The situation

was chaotic, until a British court decided for an end to the

anarchy, and convinced Maori leaders to sign a treaty and English colonization

efetivar in NZ.

The Treaty of Waitangi was held on February 6, 1840. In it, among the major

agreement, included the following: 1) The Maoris would continue as owners of

land and fishing. 2) Maoris accept the new colonial government, including the

right to purchase Maori land. All land transactions Maori or not, would be

made through the government. 3) Recognition by the Maoris of the

sovereignty of the Queen of England. 4) The Maoris have the same rights and

privileges of the colonists. 5) All lands that were signatories or illegally

purchased before the treaty, would go back to the Maoris. The agreement

encompasses much more than that, but the most important were the lands on

which the British would have to buy it, rather than just take them over. With

regard to the command, the chiefs would continue with the command of their

tribes and traditions, but obeying a governor general and the new laws

imposed. The Treaty of Waitangi day is still in force today, and well respected,

is in full operation. Go back and half a case is won by the Maoris for land

reinstatement.

The Treaty of Waitangi was signed in 1840 between Great Britain and the Maori

chiefs, supposedly one of the 'best deals' ever between an empire and the

indigenous people of one of its colonies. Today the Maori people are still trying to

claim land under this treaty and a Tribunal has been set up to officiate.

After the Treaty, everything calmed down. In 1860 gold was

discovered and brought many immigrants, but this only lasted 10

years. New Zealand then turned to focus more on agricultural

production as well as livestock. He became one of the largest

exporters of sheep meat in the world, as well as first place in the

export of wool. Meat, dairy products, export binomium had the advent

of refrigeration in ships. In 1893,

Parliament was already well established,

and for the first time ever, women went to

vote in national elections. Maoris

conquered strong representation in

parliament, and returned to the social

status began to form. Despite the distance

for many markets and low population,

began to project country internationally.

The Independence of New Zealand was on the day September 26, 1907,

disconnecting from United Kingdom financially, with its own government, flag and

laws. The British Crown despite having great influence in the nation, including a

Governor General, spent and not to interfere in the internal decisions and in the

country. There was no kind of rebellion or extreme act, but a state of transition,

which occurred naturally in a mature and friendly. The interest was on both sides.

The independence of New Zealand is a matter of continued academic and social

debate. New Zealand has no fixed date of independence; instead independence

came about as a result of New Zealand's evolving constitutional status. New

Zealand evolved as one of the British Dominions, colonies within the British Empire

which gradually established progressively greater degrees of self-rule. They were

always anomalous[citation needed] in international terms, and the attempt to

define a "date of independence" in the sense that one can be given for most ex-

colonies is not really meaningful. In many ways it is an example of the Sorites

Paradox. However, a consideration of possible dates can help understanding of the

processes of change.

In the two world wars with allied troops, as well as contributing Vietnam War with

minor presence, New Zealand supported the democratic aspirations. But it was in

Galípole in Turkey in 1915 where he suffered the largest declines. The ANZAC

stands for “Australian and New Zealand Army Corps” are recognized by the

importance it had in changing the destiny of the war and of nations. It is

commemorated today by new generations. Once a year in New Zealand a few

survivors and descendants of those soldiers, they go to the streets tomorrow soon,

for civil stop remembering the thousands killed during the war. After the war, New

Zealand, pleaded Nuclear Free, that is, has no a weapon or nuclear plants.

Recently did not send troops to Iraq, I tend to participate only logistical support.

Following the attack on Pearl Harbor

and the U.S. naval offensive in the

Pacific, New Zealand became a center

of concentration of U.S. troops, most of

them at rest after operating in the

Pacific Islands.

Tottaly New Zealand offers Quality of life of its small population, and entered a

pioneer in several areas never played in other countries. One of the major changes

occurred in the public sector, which found that government services themselves

could be done better by private companies. State disappeared, and everything was

privatized. Only few organs are still working with operators themselves. Many

people were resigned, and some hired by new service providers. Virtually all

government sectors, including health, are now operated by private companies. The

sign on the street, in newspapers, and where most government , what is common

following are operators like any other company. No public operator, but the

official. The government works in the following way:. Establishes an annual budget

for each sector, and give the money in the hand of each outsourced. If the

subcontractor not meet obligations, or the quality of services, it is immediately

replaced by another. Of course, in this budget, is scheduled operators expenditures,

operating costs, and an achievement for the operating company within the market

patterns. The rendering of accounts is made up in the pennies, and who has any

irregularities, the chain is next (which is also managed by outsourced). Another

great implementation more recente, was the incentive and a favorable policy in

New Zealand immigration of skilled professionals in demand by the market (Skill

Immigration).
