New Zealand soldiers were nicknamed "Kiwis" during the Boer Wars, which took place from 1899 to 1902. This nickname derived from the native flightless bird, the kiwi, symbolizing New Zealand's identity. The term has since become a widely recognized and embraced emblem of New Zealanders, both in military contexts and beyond.
