NZ Goverment compare and contrast paragraph

In power to the people hurumanu, we learned about the Maori authority system and the British settler government system. In NZ there were two types of governments one was the Maori authority system the other one was the British settler system. Rahui was when activity was stopped for a while- e.g. you couldn't swim, or fish were someone had drowned. There no courts, judge's police, or prisons. Whereas the British settlers system is when people were responsible for the whole of the society there were set punishments dor breaking laws. This matters because it's important to know the laws before and now if we are learning about the NZ government.
