New Zealand National Front was created in 1968.
There were approximately 837 New Zealand soldiers killed in France during World War 2. This was not just on their home front, though. It was all over the battlefield.
Because NZ, and Australia fought along side the British, to support them. The term ANZAC stands for 'Australian New Zealand Army Corps' So New Zealand consider 'Rememberance day' as important because so many died in Gallipoli.

Most New Zealand army & naval units that were mobilized between September 1939 and December 1941 were sent to Europe & Egypt to fight the Germans & Italians. Then when the war in the Pacific started in December 1941, it became necessary for the US military (at the request of the British) to assume responsibility for the defense of New Zealand & Australia. The Australian military was in a similar situation. American troops were also in New Zealand for training, prior to combat. The 2nd New Zealand Division under the command of General Freyberg was sent to the Italian front where they participated in the attack on Monte Cassino. General Freyberg was the local commander who requested the Allies bomb the Abbey of Monte Cassino so they could capture that massive hill. This request was forwarded up through the command and approved by the 15th Army Group. Some say this was a political decision that was made in order to appease the New Zealand troops.
All the colonies it owned pushed it in front of the competitors (i.e. Canada, India, Australia, New Zealand, and a bit of Africa).

Are you referring to the west of the country or the Western Front as in the First World War? If you are referring to the Western Front, then it is because so many young Australian soldiers lost their lives in battles there. Battles such as Fromelles, Pozieres, Bullecourt, Messines, Ypres and so on resulted in the deaths of many, which when you consider Australia had a relatively small population had a profound impact on the national mindset.
