From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. New Zealand is an island country in the south-western Pacific Ocean comprising two main landmasses (commonly called the North Island and the South Island), and numerous smaller islands, most notably Stewart Island/Rakiura and the Chatham Islands. The indigenous Māori language name for New Zealand is Aotearoa, commonly translated as The Land of the Long White Cloud. The Realm of New Zealand also includes the Cook Islands and Niue (self-governing but in free association); Tokelau; and the Ross Dependency (New Zealand's territorial claim in Antarctica). New Zealand is notable for its geographic isolation: it is situated about 2,000 km (1250 miles) southeast of Australia across the Tasman Sea, and its closest neighbours to the north are New Caledonia, Fiji and Tonga. During its long isolation New Zealand developed a distinctive fauna dominated by birds, a number of which became extinct after the arrival of humans and the mammals they introduced. The majority of New Zealand's population is of European descent; the indigenous Māori are the largest minority. Asians and non-Māori Polynesians are also significant minority groups, especially in urban areas. The most commonly spoken language is English. New Zealand is a developed country that ranks highly in international comparisons on human development, quality of life, life expectancy, literacy, public education, peace, prosperity, economic freedom, ease of doing business, lack of corruption, press freedom, and the protection of civil liberties and political rights. Its cities also consistently rank among the world's most liveable. Elizabeth II, as the Queen of New Zealand, is the country's head of state and is represented by a ceremonial Governor-General who holds reserve powers. The Queen has no real political influence, and her position is essentially symbolic. Political power is held by the democratically elected Parliament of New Zealand under the leadership of the Prime Minister, who is the head of government. From Wikipedia under the

I've applied for an Indian Tourist visa and didn't realise that my passport expires in June (6 months). I'm planning to go to India in Feb or March which would mean my passport only had 3-4months left on it. How long does my New Zealand passport need to be valid for to gain entry into India? and is it possible to get my Tourist Visa transferred to a new passport? Help please! Asked by Nisa - Fri Dec 11 01:11:20 2009 - - 1 Answers - 2 Comments A. Your passport needs to be valid on arrival in India; the required validation of the passport for at least 6 months only had applied to the visa application. Since you also need a valid passport to get back home it actually must be vadlid during your entire journey. Once you apply for a new passport you can just travel with both passports the expired one which contains the visa and the new one which is valid. .. However you can also have the visa sticker to be transferred to your new passport at the Indian High Commission in Wellington at a fee of $15. ..

I was just wondering what are some of the requirements needed to attend an New Zealand college. Will I have to graduate highschool there at New Zealand? What kind of tests do they take to get into college? Do they take the SAT test like U.S.? And what kind of visa will I need? Asked by MrBboyAllergy - Wed Jul 1 01:04:15 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. Hi. The problem with asking this type of question on this site is that there is no-one who can answer with full and complete information. Added to that, the answers given are often far from accurate. I wonder if some of them really live here at all. New Zealand universities are very keen to attract foreign students and so they give comprehensive information on their websites. Your best bet is to check those websites and get all the information you need from there. The main universities here are - Auckland, Massey, Victoria, Canterbury, and Otago. Choose one or all and you will find everything you need. To get you started, but not as a recommendation, I give below the link to Auckland. Good luck.
