	New Zealand - LoveToKnow 1911
		The physical geography of New Zealand is closely connected with its geological structure, and is dominated by two intersecting lines of mountains and earth movements.
		With these exceptions New Zealand trade is almost all done with Australia (£5,348,000 in 1907) and the United Kingdom; the latter's share in 1906 was £26,811,000 of the whole.
		The outbreak of the Boer War in October 1899 was followed in New Zealand by a prompt display of general and persistent warlike enthusiasm: politics ceased to be the chief topic of interest; the general election of 1899 was the most languid held for fifteen years.

	Electoral Redistribution in New Zealand (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Because New Zealand's MMP electoral system includes single-member electorates, electoral redistributions continue to be undertaken to account for population growth and movements.
		Since 1887, electoral redistribution in New Zealand has had four distinguishing characteristics, all but one of which is protected by a "reserved" provision in the 1993 Electoral Act.
		New Zealand's electoral redistribution procedures are, however, sufficiently robust to ensure that politicians and political interests are not able to dominate.

	Biography / New Zeland / Kate Sheppard
		By the end of the 1870’s the women’s suffrage movement was well-established in New Zealand, drawing attention from overseas suffragists, notably the liberal philosopher John Stuart Mill, a strong supporter of the British suffrage movement.
		New Zealand’s victory would predate that of her larger allies by decades: British women were not granted suffrage until 1918 and American women were not granted it across the whole country until 1920.
		Therefore all Maori men over the age of 21 actually got the vote in New Zealand some ten years before the franchise was extended to all 'white' men over that age, with the qualification that Maori were able to vote only for their own members of parliament.

	New England Online
		Interest in a new state for the area was revived after the war with the formation of the New State Movement in 1948.
		After three attempts, the New Zealanders succeeded in facilitating the Treaty of Wellington, which was signed on the 22 October 2011.
		Indeed, the New England on the 2050's is only distantly related to the nation of farmers and rebels of forty years ago, and almost unrecognisable to the region of New South Wales that had suffered a stunted development in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

	Kate Sheppard and Woman Suffrage in New ZealandWomen's History Month 2003 by Sunshine for Women
		Further, the native pride New Zealanders embraced in the achievements of their small state and a wish to startle the world with their courage in political experiment may have contributed to early suffrage for women.
		In 1877, all New Zealand women granted the vote for local school boards; in 1881, for liquor licensing committees; and in 1885, for hospital and charitable aid boards.
		In short, the weakness of traditional conservatism, the responsible use of the ballot in other elections, the surge of radical thought, the tolerance of woman's claims, and the pride of New Zealanders in challenging tradition all coincided in the 1890 to aid passage of woman suffrage for the national legislature.

		Unemployed groups became increasingly “militant”, and in 1990 occupied the Wellington headquarters of the capitalist lobby group the New Zealand Business Roundtable (the NZBR suggested many of neoliberal reforms before they were implemented) as well as the Auckland offices of the Treasury Department (the government department responsible for implementing neoliberalism).
		It was given impetus by the New Left, anti-Vietnam War movement, anti-apartheid movement, new social movements and the strike wave of the late 1960s and 1970s.
