New Zealand

New Zealand is an island country in the south-western part of the Pacific Ocean comprising two main landmasses (the North Island and the South Island), and numerous smaller islands. The country is notable for its geographic isolation.

New Zealand is a constitutional monarchy with a parliamentary democracy. The country has no codified constitution. The British monarch is the formal head of the state represented by the Governor-General.

New Zealand stays in close association with the United Kingdom as a member of the Commonwealth of Nations. The Governor-General exercises the Crown’s powers and chairs the Executive Council, which is a formal committee consisting of all ministers of the Crown.

The legislative power is held by the democratically elected Parliament of New Zealand, and the rest of the cabinet. The British monarch and the Governor-General cannot normally exercise any power without the advice of the Cabinet, except in circumstances where there is no Cabinet or the Cabinet has lost the confidence of the Parliament. The head of the Cabinet is the Prime Minister. This is the highest policy-making body in the government.

The Parliament of New Zealand comprises one chamber, the House of Representatives, with 120 members. Parliamentary general elections are held every three years.

New Zealand has a population of 3.8 million people. The majority of New Zealand’s population is of European descent (98%), and only 4.2% are the Maori, the native population.

New Zealand has a modern, prosperous, developed economy. The country has a relatively high standard of living. New Zealand has a market economy which is greatly dependent on the global trade. Since 2000 New Zealand has made substantial gains in median household income.

The service sector is the largest sector in New Zealand’s eco-nomy. The country is heavily dependent on free trade, particularly in agricultural products. Agriculture has been and continues to be the main export industry in New Zealand.

About 50 percent of the country’s population lives in large cities, seaports and industrial centres.

Wellington is the capital of New Zealand and the third most populous urban area of New Zealand. Wellington is New Zealand’s political centre, housing Parliament, the head offices of all Government Ministries and Departments and diplomatic missions that are based in New Zealand. It is an important centre of New Zealand’s film and theatre industry.
