Hi, guys welcome back to my blog. Today for Hurumanu 1 we were watching one of the Aotearoa history shows, and after we watch the video we had to give a summary of the video. In this video, there was a lot of information and I suggest if you guys have spare time you should go and watch it because it has a lot of facts information.
Today we were watching the Aotearoa history show the Nz wars episode 6 part 2. In 1862 someone said that they saw a version of an angel saying that the Maori should own the land. At this time the Maori people thought that the government of the British people were spying on them and they were ready to fight. The British government sent over military soldiers to Nz to guard so the Maori couldn't get in.
In 1846 the M killed 7 of the soldiers from British. The British people thought that the Moari hated all of them because the Moari killed the missionaries and so they just used that as an excuse. in 1865 there were bloody battles, 300 to 400 Pamela got sent to the Chatham Islands. The British military had found out about the Maori tactics. Tekote had been sent to the Chatham Islands and had started another religion.
There was a new leader for Paimarie fighting genius and his name was Te Toku but the thing is he didn’t want to fight but he had to. One of the people killed was a famous person. some of the British thought they could exterminate the Maori. The British were offering a bounty if they killed a certain person. 120 Paimarie were killed in the war and their bodies were left on the rocks to rot in the hot summer. By 1872 the Nz wars were basically over, Nearly 300 thousand people died and 200 thousand were Maori.
In 1863 the land was illegally confiscated from Maori. Scared hills were quarried and Most northlands were turned into pakeha land. It wasn’t about the land that they were fighting about it was the fact that the land had so much spirit.
Thank you so much for reading my blog post. I hope you learnt something about the Nz wars. Leave a comment if you know any other information about the NZ wars. Have a good day
Ka pai Khaylanie! This blog post shows that you have a great understanding of the New Zealand history that we watched and read about. I never knew that people would get sent to the Chatham Islands for punishment. Did this new learning make you think about the land that we live on today?
