They survived on the land. They all worked together to gather FOOD,WATER,FLAX{for clothing} and everything. But when more maori produced the more food would be eaten the more flax would be taken of the plants and the more water would be used. So then came all the fights and arguments so they would all split up and go into different iwi and different hapu and the tribes and stuff. The wisest or strpngest or oldest would selected to be tribe leader or chief.
