The Treaty of Waitangi was signed between the indigenous Maori Chiefs and the British Crown from the North Island of New Zealand.
Due to the variation in translation, there is no general consensus on what was actually signed. However, the following points are widely accepted to have been the conditions of the Treaty:
- Maori are to be given the same rights as British subjects.
- Ownership of NZ land is given to the Maori people.
- Britain would govern New Zealand as a colony of Britain.
- The Queen of England shall appoint a British Representative and govern the country as Queen of New Zealand.

What effect did the treaty have on the people of waitangi?
The Treaty of Waitangi enabled British settlement on a bigger scale. For Maori it intially offered security as they had concerns over the colonisation of NZ by the French & the behaviour of some early British settlers. Maori operated under the assumption that they would retain control of their lands and receive protection from the British. The British and subsequent settlers took the Treaty (which had two ambiguous versions) to mean that they were now in control of NZ.
