Ok, things I know about NewZealand...
Your capital is Aukland, main cities are Wellington, and Christchurch.
The country consists of 2 islands, the North and the South. Called creatively enough the North and South islands.
The southern cross on your flag has only 4 stars, and is coloured red.
Besides the missing federation star, and small star of the southern cross, your flag is the same as ours. If you cant tell the differance between red and white stars.
Its called New Zealand, even though theres no place called Zealand.
You, like us, were originally a Brittish colony.
Your football (Rugby for the Brits and Yanks) team is called the All Blacks.
You are two hours ahead of NSW in Summer, possibly 3 hours ahead in Winter... im unsure if you have Daylight savings over there.
You are a little to the East of Australia.
At one stage, the stupid inhumans known as politicians were thinking about Merging you with us.
Your national bird is the Kiwi.
Your national nick name (such as Americans being Yanks, English being Brits or Poms, Canadians being Kanooks etc) is the "Kiwi".
