Parihaka is located in the Taranaki region of New Zealand, on the North Island. It is known for its historical significance as a site of non-violent protest and resistance by Maori leaders against British colonial forces in the late 19th century.
The Maori community at Parihaka in Taranaki conducted a campaign of passive resistance against the confiscation of their lands by the New Zealand government. This non-violent protest, led by Te Whiti o Rongomai and Tohu Kākahi, aimed to peacefully resist the loss of their ancestral lands. The government responded by arresting Te Whiti, Tohu, and many others, leading to the dispersal of the Parihaka community.
Parihaka was a significant event in New Zealand history where in 1881, the peaceful Maori settlement was invaded by government forces.
