Aotearoa history wars.

Hi guys and welcome back to another blog. Today I will be talking about the NZ Aotearoa history show. I have been watching a video about the Nz wars in the last couple of weeks. I have also made a summary of the video that we watched today. I will be sharing it with you along with some of the key points in the video.

Here it is

Summary


Today we were watching a video about the Nz history show.

In 1862 te ua said he had seen an angel say to him that Maori should own the land.  The British government sent over military soldiers to Nz to guard so the Maori couldn’t get in.


Some people thought someone was spying on them/The British were so they killed him.  The British then used it as an excuse as to why the Maori hated them.  The Europeans killed two young Maori boys after and then in 1846- the Maori killed 7 of the soldiers.


120 pm - paimarie was killed. In 1872- Nz wars were pretty much over - nearly 3000 people died 2000 were Maori. About 200 thousand people lost their lives in these wars/all of them - not just this one.  The British - Bounty was offered for the seven heads of the paimarie.


Te toke was sent to the Chatman islands where he started another religion - paimarie.

Te toku ware was then the new leader for the paimarie - religion. He didn’t want to fight in the war but was a fighting genius.

 In 1863 - the land was illegally confiscated from Maori, sacred hills were quarried, 800 years old burial sites were demolished archaeological remains were destroyed, a sewage treatment plant was built over traditional fishing grounds and a dye spill killed the local creek. It wasn’t about the land itself. It was about the spiritual connection to it. Lots of it was burial grounds.

  1. Ka pai Bailey. This blog post shows that you have a great understanding of the New Zealand history that we learnt. I never knew that there were this many wars until we watched these videos either! Did this new learning make you think about the land that we live on today?
