New Zealand lies across two tectonic plates, the Pacific and the Indo-Australian. This is a convergent boundary, where the Pacific Plate dives under the I-A one. As the ocean floor descends into the earth, it heats up and is melted. The molten portions sometimes force their way to the surface as a volcano. [Ignoring Fiordland for the moment]
In addition to the volcanoes on the main islands, there are a couple of active volcanoes, just offshore, White Island and Mayor Island.
In New Zealand's wider territories, are included Raoul Island, a quite active volcano, and in the Ross Dependency in the Antarctic is Antarctica's only active volcano, Mt Erebus.
In the North Island are Ruapehu, Tongariro, Ngaruahoe, and Taranaki, all considered to be active, though Taranaki may be dormant. Time will tell.
The same subduction process are responsible for a number of hot springs and geothermal areas. Some of the geothermal areas have their steam used for electric power generation.
In the South island are a number of dormant, or more probably extinct, volcanoes.
there are hundreds of mountains and volcanos under the sea but there are so many that we do not know about so it is hard to say exactly how many
New Zealand is 21 hours ahead of California, so it would be 8 am the next day.
As of March 2022, there have been no reports of deaths caused by an earthquake in New Zealand. However, in the past, earthquakes in New Zealand have resulted in fatalities, the most notable being the 2011 Christchurch earthquake where 185 people lost their lives.
There is an 11 to 13-hour time difference between New Zealand and the United Kingdom, depending on daylight saving time. New Zealand is ahead of the UK, so when it is midday in New Zealand, it is around midnight in the UK.
New Zealand ranges in longitude between roughly 166.47° East to 178.55° East. Longitude is measured from the Prime Meridian, so those are the angles if you start at the Prime Meridian and travel eastward. Traveling westward from the Prime Meridian, the corresponding angles are 181.45° and 193.53° .
Because New Zealand is sitting on two tectonic plates which cause volcanos when the move.

New zealand has won 9 so far
There in 90 legal landfills in New Zealand. so that means 90 landfills are allowed to be used.
New Zealand is centred on the edge of two tectonic plates. Australia isn't anywhere near an edge, so it is safe.
New Zealand's standard time is GMT+12. Italy's is GMT+1. So, disregarding Daylight Savings Time, Italy is eleven hours behind New Zealand.
This could be because places like New Zealand do not have as many health and Safety measures.
Because New Zealand is on the edge of the plate tectonics.
New Zealand is an English-speaking nation, so you would say "I'm home now."
ans2. New Zealand has hundreds of mountains that only an experienced mountaineer would risk, and another thousand or so that provide enjoyable recreation.
