The country of New Zealand is made up of two main islands: North island, te Ika a Maui, and the South island, te Wai o Pounamu. The largest of the smaller islands is Stewart Island, Rakiura, and there many much smaller islands, most of which are uninhabited. There are around 600 islands that lie within 50km of the mainland coastline.
Some of the smaller islands and island groups are the Chatham Islands, The Bay Of Islands (which alone has approximately 150 islands), Auckland Islands, Great Barrier Island, Resolution Island, D'Urville Island, Campbell Island, Adams Island, Waiheke Island and Secretary Island.
There is a Realm of New Zealand, for which you'll find a Wikipedia entry, and it'll give you an idea of the extent of NZ territory.
Far south towards Antarctica, there are several inhospitable looking islands jutting up out of the Southern Ocean - right on the 180o longitude.
