Which was discovered first Australia or New Zealand?

No records exist regarding when Australia was first "discovered" by its indigenous people, whilst records concerning the Polynesians and Maori of New Zealand are not necessarily based on fact. It is likely, however, that Aborigines were in Australia long before any races were on New Zealand. Regarding discovery by Europeans explorers, to our knowledge, the Australian continent was discovered by Europeans, specifically Portuguese explorers, before New Zealand.

Why is there a larger biodiversity in new Zealand than Australia?

New Zealand's larger biodiversity compared to Australia can be attributed to its unique geological history, including long periods of isolation and its distinct climate. The country's varied ecosystems, ranging from temperate rainforests to alpine regions, have allowed for the evolution of a wide range of endemic species. Additionally, New Zealand's lack of certain predators and competitors that exist in Australia has facilitated the survival and diversification of its flora and fauna. In contrast, Australia's harsher climate and more recent geological changes have shaped a different biodiversity profile.


What treaties exist between Australia and New Zealand?

The main agreements are Closer Economic Relations (CER) which allows free trade between Australia and New Zealand.
