New Zealand

New Zealand's two main Islands are 260,000 square miles of beautiful mountains and deep valleys. At a population of 4.7 million people, there a lot of space for visitors. The North Island (Te Ika-a-Maui) and the Southern Island (Te Waipounamu) are across the Tasmanian Sea from their sister State, Australia.

​The Maori culture was established here about 750 years ago and is still there contributing its influence to this modern State, in a very positive way. They have given up eating sailors, and their warlike rituals are attracting tourist and contributing to the economy.
