Retreat of New Zealand Government from Kororareka to Auckland City 1800's: The Maori Flagstaff War

at the first Capitol of New Zealand at Kororareka

In 1840, Maori Allied and the British Crown signed the Treaty of Waitangi. The first New Zealand Capitol offices started in the City of Kororareka located near Bay of Islands where the Treaty of Waitangi was made official. 

After a time around 1844-1845, new British traders and a growing new generation of foreign businessmen convinced themselves that the Aotearoa NZ Capitol was more under British Crown Law, than under Maori Allied authority. Newly arriving English councilmen and Nobleman also assumed that their dearly beloved high-end social status and entitled reputations had been carried with them from Great Britain into Aotearoa New Zealand. Major conflict began with those that wished to be the new governors and to fully own the new NZ Capitol city while disregarding that it being already owned by sir Hone Heke and Iwi. 

The new social and business disputes quickly became political and New British traders began flying a "Union Jack Flag" inside the City Capitol limits. The flying of the Union Jack (British Flag), gave a clear message to Allied Maori in the region that a public reminder needed to be shown. On the 8th of July 1844, Hone Heke and Te Haratua forces then cut the British Union Jack Flag down for the first time as a demonstration, to bring order to the confusion, however the lesson was not yet learned. British immigrants were at that time land crazed and heeded no warning even by the Crown or it's Missionaries, and the flag had to be cut down 2 more times in open warning. The last and 4th time was no warning and over 300 British troops that were stationed at the Flagpole, died protecting the flag, and the flag was taken down during The Invasion of Kororareka City by Hone Heke's forces, the first Capitol of New Zealand had fallen.

The New Zealand Capitol City of Kororareka was completely leveled by fire except for buildings owned by missionaries and people of God, the rest of the people were left with ruins. The exhibited British Imperial Flagstaff area where the Imperials and their loyalists had tried to fly their own flag was not burned but was left wide-open, so to let passing entitled British men see the "British Union Jack Flag" face down in the mud, sending a clear message that Maori Law stay within the region. The Allied Maori parties and the Crown authorities there in Aotearoa reconciled enough to begin again in Auckland another several other Maori Allied including sir Tamiti Waka Nene.

The retreating New Zealand offices then took refuge at the newly forming City of Auckland in 1846-1847 making it the 2nd Capitol of New Zealand and taking the offer of protection by the Allied Maori in the far North mainly under the famously decorated Maori War veteran Waka Nene (High-rank among the Northern Maori)

As the 2nd NZ Capitol region of Auckland was being established an incident with Crown Auckland police Magistrates happened with them stepping out-of-line and who attacked a Chief on the street and made unwarranted arrests of other extremely high-status Maori figures. The Maori leaders that were enraged were in relation to surrounding owners of the Gulf regions and once word of their arrests went out, a Maori Invasion force was assembled while Auckland had only a few ships in harbor and the less experienced police Magistrates. During the Invasion of Auckland quick negotiations saved the second NZ Capitol City for a time, and it's residents, and new laws were passed to assure that police Magistrates knew their place under Allied Maori and NZ Colonial authority with some officials being demoted. The City of Auckland between 1846 and 1864, remained the Capitol of New Zealand until after the Maori NZ Wars were over. William Hobson is buried today in Auckland Symonds Street Cemetery.

As the Maori Wars or The New Zealand Wars ended in the Northern island regions, the 3rd New Zealand Capitol was moved south in 1865 to Wellington as a neutral location available to the entire nation where it has stayed.

◘ Health Interests

#1 tip Trust in Medical help has lowered since year 2000, especially when it comes to Cancer Treatments. Promises unkept for cures and breakthroughs in new research never applied, or with poor results, for over 40 years has raised skepticism. Following the most advanced tech nations instead of relying on easy access convenient hospitalization has been recommended for those looking for better medical help.

#1 tipA Community report says to "Beware of TAP WATER" [Tap Water can be Dangerous]. Outside the island, there are industrialized cities with real toxic issues. On the surface the City may have great rides, food, highways, and parks, but have under it all "toxic or environmental health issues" due to old Landfills and Water Infrastructure being ignored. If an area has a waste smell, the ground nearby could be a covered over Landfill where a town has expanded, buried the old one, and moved to a new location. Buying clean bottled water is an important choice, and will save a person's health.
◘ Community Interests

#1 tipPacific Islander American Community report on "Banking Overdraft Schemes" which resequence transactions on lower income accounts to make the accounts overdraft. In the Banking Scheme, transactions are being posted in an order that benefits the banking fees, and costing the customer possibly hundreds of dollars. The Banking Overdraft Schemes have been reported to still be attempted. Keep your money in a trusted Bank. Do not just sign up to any bank.

#1 tip Check out your local Library for community events. Also a Library can subscribe to Polynesian Newspapers and Magazines so that you and your kids can read them. Organizing a way to have books and media content (movies and news) able for your community to check out is important. Organize your local Library on how to get things started. Classes in public school are also being asked by local community for more Pacific languages and culture to be taught.
