Maori And European Population Changes In NZ 1836 - 1901


New Zealand Population

In social studies, we have been given the task of making a multi-line graph of the population of New Zealand from 1836 to 1901.

Questions:
1. What does the Graph show us?
    It shows us that the number of Maori people decreases 
    whereas the number of European increase.

2. Why do you think the numbers of Maori change?
    Because the Maori traded their goods and food for muskets
    Then the musket wars started.

3. Why do you think the numbers of Europeans changed?
    The Maori traded their land for weapons and other goods
    Then the Europeans came to the pieces of land the the 
    Europeans traded for.
