    New Zealand has a developed economy focused on tertiary industries like services. While it was historically dependent on agriculture, its economy has grown significantly since the 1950s as other sectors developed. Educational attainment is high with nearly universal primary education and most having secondary qualifications, though disparities once existed between boys and girls. Health outcomes have greatly improved over time through increased access to healthcare, nutrition, and economic development, with lifespans rising considerably. The population is growing slowly through natural increase as birth and death rates have fallen. Inequality remains, such as between indigenous Maori and other ethnic groups, but the country has made progress in reducing marginalization over time.

    1800’s onwards.
