So thw way the wars strted was cos peple was trying to get Maori to sell thier land but they dident want to. The pakeha populaton was riseing from 2000 to 20 000 to 60 000.Then the Maori wset up a king systemso instend of iwis they had a king to rule the land. The first maori king was Potautau te wherowhero. The treaty also affected the wars because of the translation. But then this guy who was govonor grey wanted NZ land but Moari didint give it over so he wrote letters to britin and said that NZ wanted to start a war. Then they sent a lot of people to fight. But the britians killed a lot of peoplle and then the moari fought back and then that was prety much the end.

Please note....some work won't be edited - just my first drafts, so there may be some surface errors. I would love your feedback, comments, thoughts and ideas.

Hi Toby
ReplyDeleteYou have remembered lots of great facts about the NZ land wars. It would be good if you could reread this blog, perhaps with a family member, and correct your spelling and punctuation so that it is easier to read.
