New Zealand at war

New Zealand At Wars

In The 1850s the new settlements grew & the Pakeha had more power over
New Zealand.

Farmers wanted more & more land but the maori did not want to sell their land.
This was especially true of the waikato & Taranaki Areas.

      

For maori the land was sacred a had on to their grandchildren as a gift.

Many maori were worried that the Europeans were getting stronger & more control.

Numerous become worried when they saw the European population rapidly enlarge.
Then by 1858 there were as many Pakeha as Maori in Aotearoa

(New Zealand).  

There were also question of who owned the land. Some Maori even sold
the land which they did not own.
And in the past such many arguments has been settled by fighting.

But Then in 1860 the war stop between the British soldiers & the north land tribles.
Battles were in Taranaki the waikato and also near Tauranga.
