Which country do the Maori people originate from?

The Maori are the native people of New Zealand. Maori come from New Zealand. The spiritual homeland for Maori is Hawaiiki. No one is really sure about where this place is but there are many theories of where it might be. The Maori people are most certainly the "Tangata Whenua" or the native race of New Zealand. There are Tangata Whenua/ Maori Iwi groups whose whakapapa indicate that they are native to Aotearoa. These same Tangata Whenua do not have any history of migrating from another place to this whenua. They have always been in Aotearoa. The simple truth is though, no one has yet come up with any proof positive where Maori came from, so the consider themselves indigenous to New Zealand.

What was the difference between the colonization of New Zealand and Australia?

Whilst Britain colonised both countries, the essential difference is that Australia was a convict settlement from the first day, whereas New Zealand was populated by free settlers, mainly whalers, sealers, and missionaries. New Zealand became a British colony in 1840 with the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi: after this, many more free settlers from Britain arrived in New Zealand. The difference between this arrangement and that with Australia was that free settlers were free to come, along with the First Fleet (had they wanted to), and certainly after that. Whereas Britain recognised the rights of the Maori people, and saw the need to establish a treaty with them before they colonised the country, they did not recognise the rights of the Australian Aborigines, and settled the country regardless.

Why didn't the Aborigines defend themselves?

The Aborigines did not have the mans to defend themselves against European weaponry. Nor did they have any understanding that their way of life was going to change forever. Although some tribes were hostile, many were relatively peacable (within their own strict laws and customs), and they did not conceive of the possibility that everyone could share the country. By the time they understood the threat of the white man, it was too late.
