Location

The absolute location of New Zealand is 42 degrees south, 174 degrees east. New Zealand can be located south-east of Australia. The site of New Zealand is excellent because they have so many natural resources to use daily. The situation of New Zealand is not as impressive as its neighboring continent, Australia. Austrailia has the city of Sydney which is a huge part of Australlia

On my dream vacation, I would visit Middle-Earth. This is the filming site of The Lord of the Rings. It has brought many tourists to New Zealand, and with the upcoming movies, it is bound to bring more. People traveling to New Zealand has made a huge impact on the environment and economy. The outstanding landscape has brought in 2.4 million travelers annually.

Regions

New Zealand is in the Oceania region. New Zealand is apart of that region because all of the islands around that area are classified in that region. It only makes sense that New Zealand is apart of it, too.

New Zealand can be considered a node country or one that is connected to one. The side I think it leans most on though, is probably connected to one. I think this because New Zealand relies heavily on Tourism. Even though they export many things like dairy, paper products, and wool, they still have to import things to become a working country. They import crucial things like oil.

Before people do any research on New Zealand, they might thin that the country has much to do with Australia.

Friction of Distance- Many of the flights to New Zealand are expensive and long. This creates friction of distance.

Distance Decay- the longer the culture of the country has been aged, the generations now do not participate in them as they would long ago.

Time-Space Compression

Time-Space Compression is pretty much the saying "time flies when you're having fun". New Zealand has many fun things to do like hiking, swimming, the Shire, etc. Anything outdoorsy is what New Zealand has.
