Changes in the Government of New Zealand

Although the Maori authority and the British settler are types of government they still have a difference in how they rule the people and country differently. For example, the Maori authority system has different laws and they have own way of leading the people. They didn’t have courts, judges, police or prisons, they are responsible for their whanau. It's just like the system is much peaceful and people are cooperating to the government. However, the British settler government had a law that was organised to control society and stop people from breaking the rules of society. Unlike Maori authority, the people were likely responsible for the whole of society. The difference between the form of government is important because maybe they know what is best for their people and maybe because they are both play a part in forming laws.
