Venturing into the Southern Pacific Ocean around 1200 years ago, the great Polynesian navigator Kupe found a new land. Legend hold that his first sight was not of the land itself, but of a long white cloud that hovered above it and so he named it Aotearoa: Land of the Long White Cloud. Today the land is usually known as New Zealand; Aotearoa is the recognised Maori name for the country About New Zealand is an easy-to-understand guide to the New Zealand way of life. In this book you will find answers to question such as, 'Who discovered New Zealand?' 'What is the Treaty of Waitangi?' 'How is New Zealand governed?' and 'What do New Zealanders do in their spare time?' You will take a journey through New Zealand learning about her history, her culture, the land and her inhabitants.
