No, New Zealand did not invent nuclear power, but Ernest Rutherford, a New Zealand scientist, was involved in the original dicoveries that led to nuclear energy.

What do they do for a living in New Zealand?

New Zealand has a very wide range of Job opportunities available. Virtually all the same types of jobs as offered in countries like the United States are available in New Zealand. Although some jobs in NZ may be called by a different name to an identical job in the US. Like the fact there is no 'President of New Zealand', however the Job of 'Prime Minister of New Zealand' is almost identical to that of the 'President of the United States'. Also instead of 'State Senators' we have the job of 'Members of Parliament' representing various voting districts in New Zealand. Some of the few types of jobs you might find in the United States that you will not find in New Zealand are those to do with the construction of, handling and making of Nuclear weapons or running of Nuclear power plants. New Zealand's nuclear free policy introduced in 1984 and set in legislation in 1987 outlawed Nuclear power and Nuclear weapons from being produced or imported into New Zealand owned territory!
