Waitangi, treaty of, 1840. In 1839 the British government dispatched Captain William Hobson to New Zealand where uncontrolled development had already undermined traditional Maori culture. At Waitangi in February 1840 a majority of the Maori chiefs present agreed to cede sovereignty to Queen Victoria in exchange for confirmation of their land and protection. But Maori disappointment at the persistent encroachments upon their land led to the
Maori wars from 1844 until 1872. In 1994 a New Zealand government apologized for breaches of the treaty and promised compensation.
