World Maps Without New Zealand
As a Kiwi, and as other Kiwis will attest — it goes without saying — we get excited when we hear or notice anything New Zealand related on the telly or in a movie. Not sure why that is exactly, but we do. So naturally, the same thing happens when New Zealand isn’t mentioned, or rather, excluded from things we believe it shouldn’t be excluded from.
