There were several purposes for which the British used the colonies they established in New Zealand and Australia.

  • Both colonies were outposts in the South Pacific, providing a presence indicating the power and extent of the British Empire.
  • Both lands were to be used for their resources, with he intention of developing them into self-sufficient colonies that would also provide products for Great Britain.
  • Australia was also used as a convict colony, but New Zealand was not used for this purpose.
