And as for the Haka - that's a maori thing, not a NZ thing. In fact the tribe that "owns" it has been trying for years now to get it copyrighted so that they can charge the NZRFU to use it
Well I think it is SO cool when the Rugby pplz do it

Isn't Zeeland the old name for The Netherlands?[/QUOTE]No. At least, not as far as I know, and I'm a Dutchie when I need to be. (If not, I'm a Friesian. ) Zeeland is a province of The Netherlands, so this is a case of pars pro totem. Same as calling The Netherlands 'Holland' actually, although that particular mixup is so widespread it's considered acceptable, even by most Dutchies.

my definition of New Zealand:

It is the answer given by an Australian when asked this question:

"Have you ever been out side Australia and if so where?"
