On the 6th February 1840, the Treaty of Waitangi was signed at Waitangi in the Bay of Islands. James Busby was regarded as the father of the Australian wine industry. But he was in NZ to help set up a treaty between Maori and Pakeha.
Henry Williams was a missionary who changed the English version of the treaty into Maori. Hone Heke was a Maori Rangitira (chief) and was leader in Northern New Zealand.
Protection, Partnership, Participation were used to bring the Maori and Pakeha altogether. The treaty was all about these 3 things. The chiefs were only over-protective of their land and treasures.
Protection means protecting someone.
Partnership means two people as partners working together.
Participation means joining in.

Wow Denim,
That is a very interesting story about the treaty of waitangi. From that story you have taught me something new about the treaty of waitangi. Probably next time you could use speech, exclamation marks and anything else that could make your writing even more interesting.
