Māori and British first met when Captain James Cook visited these shores in 1769. Over the next seventy years contact increased, until the two cultures were linked by complex personal, political, and business relationships.
The first visitors from Britain had no plans to settle in New Zealand. They were here on business: to explore, or to exploit this country's natural resources.
Maori and British traded resources in their early contact.
One item the Pākehā visitors brought caused more upheaval than any other – the musket. At the start of the nineteenth century, these guns were the norm on European battlefields.
From 1814, Christian missionaries from Britain began building up friendly relationships with Māori. Mutual trust grew, and eventually this helped the British government gain influence here.
Before 1840, the British government had no legal power to protect its citizens while they were in New Zealand – nor could it make unscrupulous ones obey British laws. This was a problem. Māori, British traders, and missionaries all expressed their dissatisfaction.
