I have found out that there was something about a treaty and it was made sometime around the  1850's .

# data[].attributes.body
My wonderings are where and who signed the treaty.

# data[].attributes.body
Te Tiriti o Waitangi was a treaty that great ancestors decided to create when the English had invaded the Maori's land. Both sides the Maori and the English agreed on a treaty which where they would share there land between each other.

# data[].attributes.body
Maori isn't really a treasure to me but I think it depends on the type of person you are.

# data[].attributes.body
Does Britain own New Zealand?

# data[].attributes.body
I have found out that they don't completely translate and they meant different things and so they got deceived

# data[].attributes.body
one of the ways the english tricked the maori is by making there treaty ambiguous. since english doesn't directly translate to english so it can have many interpretations.

# data[].attributes.body
what was all the reasons the had a treaty

# data[].attributes.body
THat the maori were tricked into giving their land

# data[].attributes.body
I wonder if any other countries/states have been tricked into giving their land to someone else

# data[].attributes.body
te reo maori is a treasure to me because not everyone can be a maori or speak the maori language

# data[].attributes.body
the maori swapped their land for little things and they were "Tricked"

# data[].attributes.body
i think that te reo is a treasure because if you think about it there are so many languages out there and there is only one te reo maori and so it is a treasure

# data[].attributes.body
how many people signed the treaty?

# data[].attributes.body
My wondering is how many and who signed the treaty

# data[].attributes.body
what does the treaty say?

# data[].attributes.body
I think it's a treasure because we can all learn how to speak Mori or some people know it.

# data[].attributes.body
To me Te Reo Maori is a treasure because it's something I discovered and learned. The treasure means valuable and if it means something to you then it is definitely treasure

# data[].attributes.body
I think it's a treasure because no other country speaks that language.

# data[].attributes.body
My wondering is why would the maori people sign the treaty.

# data[].attributes.body
I guess you could say its a treasure because we are the only country that has people who speak that language

# data[].attributes.body
I know that te reo Maori is a treasure because we are lucky enough to have Kura Kaupapa that korero maori all the time but not every school learns te reo and what I do know is that our language is fading and dying off which means we should really be getting taught maori at every school to keep our language alive. So lets learn the reo to KEEP it alive.

# data[].attributes.body
I found out that the crown didn't have the treaty prepared before hand?

# data[].attributes.body
i think te reo Maori is a treasure now because it really rea nowadays ...

# data[].attributes.body
That some people celebrate to remember thier ansesters

# data[].attributes.body
i've found out that over the years maori land got taken so they had less land to claim

# data[].attributes.body
That I had the *Treaty* the wrong way around as I never knew that the English were the ones with an idea to make a treaty and negotiate with the natives.

# data[].attributes.body
why do people not celebrate it? how many people signed the treaty?

# data[].attributes.body
I found out that the some people don't celebrate Waitangi because its not a happy time for them

# data[].attributes.body
That the Maori where tricked by the british and they weren't given much for the land

# data[].attributes.body
That the Maori where tricked by the british and they weren't given much for the land

# data[].attributes.body
I know that the English signed the treaty but the English tricked the maori's into selling them their land and over the last years there has been more land given to the english.

# data[].attributes.body
Maori is a treasure to me because the culture and to have the privilege  to speak it and have it in our country

# data[].attributes.body
I think Te Reo Maori is a treasure, because most maoris are able to speak it and able to pass the language onto future generations.But i guess the language is quite rare as really few people still speak it.

# data[].attributes.body
why didn't the maori rebel to the crown deceiving them?and when did the maori realise that they had been deceived

# data[].attributes.body
I know that Waitangi is the name of a treaty signed by 500 maori chiefs and some english men on the date of 1840.

# data[].attributes.body
There were more than 40 chiefs that signed the maori copy at Waitangi on 6th of February in 1840.

# data[].attributes.body

# data[].attributes.body
Why did they trick the maori?

# data[].attributes.body

# data[].attributes.body
To me Te reo Maori is a treasure because there is no other country with Te reo Maori. My Maori pride is something I shall not hide.

# data[].attributes.body
Britain wanted New Zealand to become part of its empire and in order for that to happen they had to organise a treaty with New Zealand before any of the other powerful european countries like France or Germany

# data[].attributes.body
I know that maori is a treasure because it is an amazing language to learn and know and we are all luck to have a kaupapa about it

# data[].attributes.body
The treaty house is the most visited historical building. The house life began life at 1833, it was James Busby's house.

# data[].attributes.body

# data[].attributes.body
I wonder how many people signed the treaty?

# data[].attributes.body
