New Zealand began as a ‘nation’ in 1840 with strong ties to England.
Through the 20th century these ties weakened, and in 1993 The PM Jim Bolger made the statement that ‘New Zealand was an Asian country’
In 2015 our largest trading partners are China and Australia, and we are still seen as a western nation.

16. Understanding cultural differences
The sources of our individual variations are complex, but can be grouped into two categories:
Those over which we have little or no control (genetic)
Biologically determined – race, sex, age, certain physical attributes, the family and society into which we are born
Those over which we have some control (environment)
Through our conscious choices and deliberate efforts
Work, background, income, marital status, military experience, political beliefs, geographic location, education
