What is the difference between Australia and New Zealand?

Question

David · Answer

Until 1841, New Zealand was a part of 'Australia', which was itself a number of different colonies which only unified in 1901. However, in 1841 the then colony of New Zealand starting governing itself separately due to the vast distance from Australia (about 2,000 km). Ever since then, New Zealand has been governed separately, including after it got independence (no specific date because it gradually became independent, the same as Australia and Canada).
