Best Answer

New Zealand is not "ruled by the British Commonwealth". Firstly, that organisation's correct name is The Commonwealth. There are 54 members of the Commonwealth and NZ is one. NZ's Head of State is the Queen, who is represented in NZ by the Governor-General. NZ's head of Government is the Prime Minister, currently John Key.
