1. Economic, social, religious and conflict
Pre 1840 Contact
Economic, social, religious and conflict

2. What to think about
Questions involving decision of Europeans to come here and consequences on Maori society from this.
Questions involving changing relationships between Maori and European and the impacts of this.
Acculturation is important as a consequence/impact.

3. Economic Contact Sealers Whalers Traders
What are they, why are they here, what interaction with Maori arose from this, what consequences came with this interaction?
Sex industry – More of a consequence of the other three, but still loosely associated.

4. Social Contact Pakeha-Maori Intermediaries Maori Travellers
You will probably use this as a consequence of the economic contact, or for 3.5 view it as an impact and part of the changing relationship.

Immediate events leading to the signing
Maori and Pakeha expectations
Versions of the Treaty
‘Official English text
Maori text
Literal English translation of Maori text
Belich’s Oral version
Reasons for different understandings of the Treaty

9. Causes Reasons for the British Making a Treaty Humanitarian concerns
Appointment of Busby (why)
Maori independence – United Tribes Flag and the Declaration of Independence (did it work, did it make people happy, e.g. James Stephens was angry Busby was potentially giving away a good colony
Influence of ‘three tails wagging the dog’
Missionaries
Agents of organised immigration (NZ Association/Company and Wakefield)
Merchants and capitalists and trade
Nerve Centres/Pressure Points (or the dog’s balls)
Influence of the ‘myths of empire’ (we’re British, we’re great)
Anglo-French rivalry
Protect Maori
Land sales and issues
Need for centralised government

10. Causes Reasons for Maori making a treaty
Missionaries (this means the treaty can act as a consequence of missionaries in that topic)
Authority
Land issues
Trade
Protection of the British
Think of it like ‘ooooo lots of shiny things we want them where do we sign?’

11. Consequences Immediate Consequences Longer Term Consequences
Gathering signatures
No unanimous Maori agreement
Proclamation of British Sovereignty
Divided opinions and different reactions to the Treaty
Longer Term Consequences
= clashes of government authority (kawanatanga) and chiefly authority (rangatiratanga)
Legislative violations by the governors of the 1840s
Dissatisfaction by Maori results in conflict (Northern Wars)
Establishment of Pakeha authority – 1852 constitution and settler government
Race Relations
Trade
Establishment of Kingitanga

12. Kingitanga
What
Maori, specifically the tries of the central North Island, created a ‘Maori King’ as a way of asserting sovereignty against the ever expanding settlers.
Who
Te Wherowhero became King Potatau
His son Matutaera succeeded him as King Tawhaio
Influential Maori such as Wiremu Tamihana were influential in estalishing Kingitanga. Tamihana is known as ‘the kingmaker’, although many Maori played a role.

13. Causes Increasing Maori apprehension due to:
Population – Pakeha overtook them in 1858
Gov. Fitzroy
Gov. Grey
Post Treaty conflicts (Wairau Affray and Northern War)
Maori land loss
1852 constitution
Settler attitude to Maori
Plus it would be a real problem for the British as it would unite Maori (stops ‘divide and rule’) and by prohibiting the sale of land it prevents the British from being able to take all the land they want.

14. Consequences Maori assertion of sovereignty
Land placed under the mana of the King
Pakeha saw it as a direct threat
Waikato War
Government decision (Grey)
Land confiscation
Not a unified movement
