Geography & Weather
Situated in the southwest Pacific Ocean, New Zealand of a large, long group of islands,1600 kilometers from north to south. New Zealand has another name, ??Aotearoa??, meaning ??a land of the long white cloud?? in the native Maori language. This long group of islands is made up of two main landmasses--the North Island and the South Island, Stewart Island, and many smaller islands.
The North Island has been formed mostly by volcanoes, some of which are still active.
A massive mountain chain, the Southern Alps, runs almost the full length of the South Island.
New Zealand is in the southern temperate latitudes midway between the Equator and the South Pole. The climate is maritime: no part of the country is more than 120 km from the sea.
Wildlife
New Zealand??s long isolation from other landmasses has allowed the evolution of unique flora and fauna.
A large number of native birds and plants, insects (many flightless), spiders and snails, as well as all native earth worms, are found only in New Zealand.
