  5. HAH its not a country!

    Were both islands! Australia is the biggest island continent.

    SERIOUS fact!

    And NZ isnt part of Australia

  6. Certainly it's own country.  It's got nothing to do with Australia, aside from a vaguely similar accent and being nearby :)

  7. It's a country next to Australia

    Duh!

  8. New Zealand is notable for its geographic isolation, being separated from Australia to the northwest by the Tasman Sea, approximately 2000 kilometres (1250 miles) across. Its closest neighbours to the north are New Caledonia, Fiji and Tonga. so, now its clear that new zealand is not a part of Australia and it is a country.

  9. It is a separate country, and my goal is to visit.

  10. countryyyyyy

  11. its own country

  12. new zealand is a separate country from australia.

  13. They're both separate countries.

  14. New Zealand is a independent country to australia, it is often a joke that it is the 7th state of australia.

  15. New Zealand is a country which is about 1,250 miles (2,012 km) southeast of Australia.

  16. a country

  17. its its own country

  18. Its an independant country.

  19. new zealand is its own country australians call new zealanders kewies or sometimes sheep shaggers (they call them that because there are a lot of sheep there and NO THEY DONT SHAGG THERE SHEEP oh and this is a mean disrespectful name)

  20. its a part of your mum

  21. Does amaze how many questions I have seen regarding New Zealand on the Australian forum. Little wonder some are confused.

  22. It wouldn't be anything without Australia, but it is it's own country.Own government, 2 seperat main islands [north and south] and it's bloody freezing cold.

    New Zealanders and Australians can travel and work freely without any sort of Visa, you just need a passport.

    It takes about 4 hours to fly from sydney to NZ which is about the same or a bit less than flying to Western Australia from Sydney.

  23. It's a country.

  24. Its a country  apart from Australia

  25. It's an independent country.  

    The British set up colonies there in the 19th century and eventually claimed it, in part to stop the USA from grabbing it as a lot of American sealers and whalers used it as a base.  The Americans got Hawaii and part of Samoa instead.  

    In the 1890s when Australia was sorting out federation, New Zealanders were asked if they wanted to join.  They voted no.

  26. It's a country.

    It has its own flag. It also has an independence day.

  27. they are separate and even have different accents

  28. i thought it was part of China

  29. It's country

  30. They'll shoot you if you say they're part of Australia! There's a lot of fierce, independent snobs in NZ! I should know, my Dad was born there! :-)
