MAORI FLAG

The National Māori flag was developed by members of a group named Te Kawariki in 1989.The group unveiled the flag at Waitangi on the 6th of February 1990. New Zealand is one of the most recently settled landmasses. The first known settlers were Eastern Polynesians who, according to most researchers, arrived by canoe in about AD 1250-1300. Over the following centuries these settlers developed into a distinct culture now known as Māori.

Māori society was destabilised from the late 18th century when weapon and diseases introduced by Europeans almost destroyed its culture. It was 1840 when they lost an increasing amount of their land and went into a cultural and numerical decline. The Māori cultural revival began in the 1960s and continues. On the 14th of December 2009, Cabinet recognised the Māori (Tino Rangatiratanga) flag as the preferred national Māori flag and noted that it will complement the New Zealand flag.
