New Zealand, (Maori: Aotearoa) is an island nation located in Oceania. it remains to be the oldest standing nation in the Southern Hemisphere. The main language spoken by most of residents is English.
Geography
New Zealand is a nation based in the southwestern Pacific ocean. The nation consists of two main islands, North Island and South Island with many smaller islands just off the coast. The terrain of the two islands vary, with the South island consisting mostly of Mountains and occasional snow and the North consisting mostly of densely forested areas and vast lakes.
Description
Auckland city and Timaru are both capitals of New Zealand. Auckland has the star but however, plans for Timaru being possibly the third capital was planned but never proceeded as Wanganui to Auckland's change was accepted with good reasons by an admin. Timaru is kind of the spiritual capital for New Zealand and South Island while Auckland has no choice but to hold the star. Auckland is the biggest city in terms of size and is also a capital of New Zealand but Taupo however is the biggest town in terms of population. The biggest cities in population and claims to exist throughout history of New Zealand are Wanganui, Coro and Christchurch along with Auckland as it had a time where it was the biggest city in population and claims. The population of New Zealand is around 61 people, having most people on mainland New Zealand and some on other islands like Norfolk Island, Chatham Island and on New Caledonia.
History
Not much has been remembered or recorded from New Zealand's history but the remembered events are listed below.
Pre-History
New Zealand started off as a French Protectorate with a list of strong players who first spawned on the islands and originally planned on making New Zealand a megaproject but later, they decided to move to player central places and they founded nations like France and original Australia.
Beta era
New Zealand and the Southern Hemisphere's first town to exist was Wanganui, created by Tribubb. The town also comes fifth place for the oldest towns in the whole entire server, being created on the 26th of October 2018 along with many other towns like Kotte, Paris, New York, Seoul etc. Wanganui started off as a similar thing to a Colonial Republican Dictatorship, a protectorate under Terra's France and Tribubb was a consul. One week later on the 5th of November, Tribubb created Aotearoa (the Maori name for New Zealand) and so Aotearoa became the first nation in the Southern Hemisphere and it still remains standing today as New Zealand. One month after Aotearoa was founded, Tribubb declared a Hegemony and New Zealand became independant.
Inventing the first recorded flying machine in EMC
On the 7th of November 2018, Tribubb had gathered enough slime blocks to invent a flying machine and so he put it to use on a stretch of ice road and he managed to glide across the length of the city and did plenty of tests before manning the flying machine. This became the first recorded flying machine to have ever existed in all of EarthMC.
Aotearoa's beginning
Aotearoa's start was slow and Tribubb was focusing on helping paris expand its borders and also created a crane with emerald and iron that Tribubb had a lot of, then came the nation's first resident, Tezlz. Tezlz joined on the 5th of November 2018. After Tezlz's appearance, many people started joining and New Zealand became fast developing nation with a very helpful community.
January 2019 was when New Zealand had their first time getting lots of residents and by that time, New Zealand had about 110 citizens living there with New Zealand being one of the top ten nations on /n list. Unfortunately, the nation was only on the list for around two weeks due to sudden player loss but the nation was still running nicely and was active.
NZ and the The Great Balkan War
Although not much is known about New Zealand in this war, New Zealand had CuttleFishNZ fighting in The Great Balkan Wars like Byzantine-Bulgarian war and the Second Battle of Constantinople. CuttleFishNZ had to follow a code of conduct where 1. they couldn't fly the NZ flag and 2. not using allied nation spawns when fighting them. CuttleFishNZ is the only known New Zealander to have ever fought in any battle or war.
Wanganui's palace finished
After almost 2 months of planning and making, Wanganui's famous palace was finished. The surprising part is that Tribubb built every block by himself. It is known as the most biggest project to have been ever done in New Zealand
Greymouth
One of New Zealand's most remembered part of history was the continuous conflict with Greymouth and New Zealand's community. Greymouth was a player who joined during the Crepuscular Era and his username quite literally comes from the town he used to own, Greymouth. Greymouth was said to never have been a nice person according to the veterans of New Zealand and it got to a point where basically every New Zealand citizen felt hatred towards Greymouth. One of the veterans of New Zealand claimed that Greymouth once had a fight in the global chat with someone outside of New Zealand and caused a bunch of drama for almost the whole day in early April 2019, luckily it never continued and ended on the same day. Greymouth was not only causing conflict within New Zealand but he had also been causing conflict and drama outside of New Zealand and so a Greymouth case was opened to give solid evidence for how cruel he was.

After putting the case up, Greymouth states that the case is biased towards all but him and that it makes him look bad and says that it could just be kept to justice matters and not be released publicly, then which one of the directorates answer with, "no, this is an investigation, we need to let the nation know." After some argument Greymouth states that the case being publicly announced is violation of his privacy and another directorate answers with, "You are currently being investigated, we have released no private information has been released and all information in the case is already published, the investigation just compiled it. So get off your high horse and sort you battles without abuse of power." After more arguments Greymouth gives his verdicts in a counter argument.
Toycat's impact
Most would know that Toycat had a big impact on EarthMC as it brought many people into the server but as more people started joining, it got harder for New Zealand players to come on. Toycat is one of the main reason why New Zealand today isn't as active as before and many say that the queue became unbarable as people had to wait 5 hours to get in and majority of the players brought in by Toycat wanted to join major places so eventually New Zealand became an inactive nation. New Zealand, around June 2019 was in the top 10 nations, having 16 towns but the population and activeness dropped drastically and quickly. Only the big towns back then survived this crisis.
Greymouth's goodbye
Tribubb became aware of the situation Greymouth was making in New Zealand and so Tribubb took away Greymouth's emeritus role which sent shade to Greymouth and he became irrelevent along with his town. Greymouth eventually left New Zealand to create the nation of Fiji and changed his name to Suva. Although Greymouth and his horrible acts left New Zealand a negative history behind, Tribubb offered to fund 500 gold for Greymouth to start Fiji and so Greymouth left as Suva and started his nation. After he left, the town of Greymouth stood for a little longer until it fell into the ruins, as either their residents went inactive or left the town but eventually, Greymouth became inactive or just left the server and Fiji fell too. Greymouth resides at Fiji now and that was the last time New Zealand ever saw him.

Recent times
The biggest NZ die-off
New Zealand had their biggest die off between October 2019 and January 2020, right after the second leader of New Zealand, Mochoimochi joined. Towns and cities started falling and towns like Christchurch and Coro lost all their residents, with mainly Hawkes Bay and Bukjoknalla (ancient Auckland) being active. Auckland experienced a big increase on the amount of residents and it later became the most populated town in all of New Zealand.
Slowly becoming active again
New Zealand slowly gained back their activeness a little bit when more players started joining. Taupo currently holds the active centre of New Zealand.
Transport

South Island
South Island is always said to be more beautiful. It's true. The South Island of New Zealand has high mountains which make a beautiful view from high up and the surrounding snows and fallen towns make it look extremely gorgeous. The castle Wendell is high in the mountains, so if you ever go up there, you'll get an extremely wonderful view of mountains.
