Geography: two main islands separated by the Cook Strait:

- the North Island (Te Ika a Maui) represents 42% of the New Zealand territory but shelters about three quarters of the national population, located notably in Auckland and Wellington. Its relief is drawn by volcanoes, but it is also composed of meadows, suitable for breeding.

Its relief is dominated by the Southern Alps, whose highest point is Mount Cook (Aoraki, 3754 meters above sea level since 1991 and a large avalanche that made it lose ten meters high!).
