    Description

    World War One was a global war that aligned the Allies (Britain, France, and the Russian Empire) against Germany and Austria - Hungary. As a dominion of the British Empire, New Zealand was called upon to defend the empire for king and country. The war took approximately 100,000 New Zealanders overseas, many for the first time. Some anticipated a great adventure but found the reality very different. Being so far from home made these New Zealanders very aware of who they were and where they were from. In battle, they were able to compare themselves with men from other nations. Out of this, many have argued, came a sense of a separate identity, and many New Zealand soldiers began to refer to themselves as ‘Kiwis’.
