Nz Maori land wars What have i learned

 I learned that the war took place  1845 to 1872. It was between the Maori and British.Although there more British the Maoris were winning. I also learnt that families had to stay in trenches. The British had guns but the Maori did not.They had Spears. The Maori were very strong.Many Maoris were forced  out of their land so the British could take over. Many Maori and British lost their lives from the war.
