Non-violent Protest

In those 1800,s people from the Taranaki mount, The Parihaka people were so far happy back then but then all those had to come to an end. When the Europeans arrived in New Zealand the Waitangi happened when they had to sign this contract. Literally, all the leader's signed this contract and they thought it was for their own good but then when the people wrote the translation in Maori it wasn't the same as the English version. Then the European people started to take away people's homes and villages. When they tried to take the Parihaka land away from them they didn't say anything. when the soldiers came to take their land they were quite and they were non-violent when they came. when the soldiers came they saw kids playing the girl doing the haka. The soldiers just walked past and thought to get to the leaders to talk this out. They said if they didn't give the land in 14 days they be arrested.
